If you want to see what the current package description looks like, type the
following from a command line:

# aptitude show ubufox

The Hardy LTS release shows this:

"Description: Ubuntu Firefox specific configuration defaults and apt support
 Extension package for Firefox provides ubuntu specific configuration
defaults
 as well as apt support for firefox plugins/extensions.
 You can uninstall this package if you prefer to use a pristine firefox
install."

Unfortunately, because the package is undocumented, there is no way to tell
you what should be in the description. I can tell you that the current
description is completely unhelpful about what "ubuntu specific
configuration defaults" means.

In addition, reading the original report of this bug would give you some
idea of what is desired.
