Honestly, to announce this one month before release without feature
parity, is baffling.

As it looks this puts us in a position where we probably have to stop
supporting Ubuntu after more than a decade, as the available browsers
can't work with our Belgian Identity Card.

And this because of a packaging format. It is honestly mind-boggling.

Bug description:
  Per Canonical's distribution agreement with Mozilla, we're making the
  snap¹ the default installation of firefox on desktop ISOs starting
  with Ubuntu 21.10.

  The snap is built and published for amd64, armhf and arm64. It is
  jointly maintained by Mozilla and the Ubuntu desktop team, and
  published by Mozilla.

  This requires updating the desktop-minimal seed, as well as ubuntu-
  release-upgrader.
