[Bug 197280] Re: wishlist: update-alternatives support for /usr/bin/firefox
I would also like to see this, it is rather weird that there isn't a choice for firefox to switch between firefox-2 and firefox-3 while for example java provides alternatives for multiple versions. -- wishlist: update-alternatives support for /usr/bin/firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197280 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've found that you can do this yourself by running these commands, although it would be nice to set it up by default. sudo apt-get install firefox-2 firefox-2-gnome-support sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/firefox firefox /usr/bin/firefox-3 50 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/firefox firefox /usr/bin/firefox-2 100 -- wishlist: update-alternatives support for /usr/bin/firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197280 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 197280] Re: wishlist: update-alternatives support for /usr/bin/firefox
I don't understand why point at /etc/alternatives/java?? But I'd love support for two firefoxes installed at once. and use galternatives, update-alternatives to switch between them. There are a number of plugins that don't work yet in firefox 3 and it's SLOW!! +1 -- wishlist: update-alternatives support for /usr/bin/firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197280 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
