How to install Firefox when a message comes up saying its installed already. Thanks Oh, I'm not at all a fan of Chromium, actually don't like it.
EDIT: nevermind, did sudo apt-get install firefox and it installed, could not install Firefox from AppCenter.

could not install Firefox from AppCenter. I had the same problem. I cannot install Firefox on AppCenter.
Uninstall Firefox in Synaptic Package Manager.
- Status > Not Installed (residual config) > Firefox > mark completely uninstall > apply
Then I install normally in AppCenter. |

Confirmed, this also happens on clean bodhi 6 apppack (which unfortunately does not include firefox already, despite what the message says). Like mentioned above, it seems to install fine with apt.  Chromium also opens over top of the shelf |

another problem in Firefox
- Involuntary double right click
When removing the head bar ( Title bar ).
I'm not sure if it's Firefox or Bodhi Theme. I did not find related information. My solution is to apply the> Borderless But it is annoying. If you open a new window. pop-up window.
example:
Chat in live streaming Youtube.
Something similar.

In case you missed it: Users cannot install firefox from bodhi appcenter on BL6. (This was mentioned in another thread but to make sure it's noted here as seems fairly significant issue that most new users will run into. Note apt works fine.) My apturl script should not fail for packages dpkg reports as rc. Surprising no one noticed this on the testing ISOs, unless for some reasons they did not have this issue. Anyway regardless apturl-saf in the BL6.0 repo should resolve this issue. An updated/upgraded system should no longer have this problem for any rc package. |
