[Lunar-commits] <moonbase> firefox4: removed because it is not security supported - use firefox5

[samuel]

Is there actually a *good* reason to keep the 'old' firefox version
alive ? I mean the 3.x.x series? Can't we just move the firefox5
module into the firefox module? Cause otherwise we will have this
removing of firefox_x every 6 weeks from now on...
