* Update globalmenu-extension to 3.2.7
  - Fix for LP: #1035305 - Crash when switching apps back to Firefox
    with Firebug installed

122. By Chris Coulson on 2012-07-26

* Update globalmenu-extension to 3.2.6
  - Partial fix for LP: #1025011 - HUD search crashes Firefox when Firebug
    is installed. Make all menu nodes reference counted, and hold a strong ref
    when dispatching events, in case the event results in the removal of
    the target node. This fixes the crash, although the Firebug submenus may
    flicker or display duplicated entries

119. By Chris Coulson on 2011-10-08

* We need to keep the postinst magic for the distribution.ini folder ->
  symlink transition permanently to handle upgrades from Natty, as Natty
  users are upgrading from the the same upstream version of Firefox as
  Oneiric, and always will be. This means that we can't rely on the install
  location changing during the upgrade (LP: #869311)
  - update debian/firefox.postinst.in

118. By Chris Coulson on 2011-09-28

* New upstream stable release (FIREFOX_7_0_1_BUILD1)
  - Fixes LP: #861664

* Add Mongolian and Swahili to locale blacklist. These aren't meant to be
  built on the release channel, but they still appear in the upstream
  shipped-locales
  - update debian/locales.blacklist
* Drop the temporary postinst magic for the distribution.ini folder ->
  symlink transition. The new upstream release means that the install
  location changes, so this is redundant now
  - update debian/firefox.postinst.in

117. By Micah Gersten on 2011-09-26

* Really fix LP: #858683 - Clean up the symlinks for users who upgraded to
  7.0+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu2; This means checking for everything before the
  -0ubuntu3 revision since the -0ubuntu2 users already upgraded
  - update debian/firefox.postinst.in

116. By Chris Coulson on 2011-09-25

* Fix LP: #858683 - All search engines disappear. Handle the directory ->
  symlink conversion in the postinst script
  - update debian/firefox.postinst.in

115. By Chris Coulson on 2011-09-25

* Fix LP: #858683 - All search engines disappear. Revert the change to move
  distribution.ini, it seems to need some extra postinst magic to make it
  upgrade correctly and not break everything. Not for a Sunday morning though
  - update debian/rules

114. By Chris Coulson on 2011-09-24

* New upstream stable release (FIREFOX_7_0_BUILD2)

* Move distribution.ini to a stable install path in Oneiric for now, so it
  can be diverted without breaking during upgrades
  - update debian/rules
