We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all
reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
Presumably this problem was a one time occurrence and/or is no longer an
issue? Can the bug report now be closed? If we do not hear from you the
bug report will close itself in approximately 60 days time.
Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hello there,
Initially I had a version of Firefox which underwent some changes (I don't
remember the nature of change - may be for flash/other video content). It was
malfunctioning - browser used to freeze all of a sudden and I chose to
uninstall. I had to remove that in incorrect manner and result is that now I am
unable to do a good install of the latest. Additional problem: the system has
problems in sound - no audio output is there and any installation fails with
indication to Firefox update failing. Has become a nightmare in the recent
past.
Did an upgrade to 12.10 from 12.04 hoping it would solve - unfortunately it
has not. Any help is appreciated. Thank you very much!
Regards
Arun
