I use Opera as my browser. MX Linux offers Firefox as second browser-default by install.Firefox becomes to have things/tricks hidden in about:config also some settings are restricted and gray out ... Admistrator bla bla..., I thought to remove it totally and install Pale Moon. So I did. I removed Firefox by Synaptic and manually all remaining entries. Every thing goes fine. But when I run Mx Updates , MX wants to reinstall the Firefox-Esr.
Using in Terminal :
sudo apt-get purge firefox*
Gives me the follow :
Code: Select all
The following additional packages will be installed:
epiphany-browser epiphany-browser-data libavahi-gobject0
The following packages will be REMOVED:
firefox-esr*
The following NEW packages will be installed:
epiphany-browser epiphany-browser-data libavahi-gobject0
0 upgraded, 3 newly installed, 1 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
Need to get 2,029 kB of archives.
After this operation, 154 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
Any other way to stop MX Linux aka Debian to stop reintalling of firefox-esr my way to resolve this issue is the only one ?
