[Lunar-commits] <moonbase> firefox: updated to 7.0.1

[Zbigniew Luszpinski]

I bypassed get_module_config new_ver and used $version in post_install
like in seamonkey module so bug is workarounded. Now there should be no 
problem with plugins after firefox install. Commited to moonbase.

have a nice day,
