Hi:

I tried fennec once, and today I'd like to test firefox beta1.

I uninstalled firefox and when trying to install the new beta, I got a message about fennec already installed.

That package does not appear in the app manager, however I can see it if I list the installed packaged in console:

/home/user # dpkg -l fennec

Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Cfg-files/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-==============-==============-============================================ rc fennec 1.1 Web browser built by the Mozilla community /home/user #


Now if I try to uninstall it, I get:

/home/user # apt-get purge fennec

Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package fennec is not installed, so not removed
