I've included a design change to the APTURLRedirector project which will
bypass the "Switch to Ubuntu" screen if it's detected from the UA that
the machine is linux and attempt to launch the apt link. After 5 seconds
additional text will display informing the user that you need Ubuntu for
this to work and provide the link to learn more. This fix has been
committed. I would love to implement the older functionality (Possibly
after Chris implements sending the additional header to *.ubuntu.com)
for now this change ensures that Firefox users won't need to incur an
additional step trying to get packages from apt.ubuntu.com

** Changed in: apturlredirector
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed
