Thanks guys. Changed over to Blue Shell ppa and created the file with the pin code. Ran update and then dist-upgrade and now it shows a firefox 15 upgrade which I assume is from Canonical. Confused! Mind you I'm still using Sumki's 14.1 package for firefox.Last edited by Wallace; Sep 01, 2012, 04:59 AM.

Have you done exactly what that is said on post #87 especially for the origin of the package ? If yes, put the priority to 1001, update and upgrade for installing the FF package of blue-shell even if it is downgrading FF. Then re-put the pin priority to 1000.

Then run sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. This should downgrade you to blue-shell's FF 14.0.1. Ya FF 15 not in the repos yet!

In nano ctrl>X asks you to save the file. You answer YES with Y to confirm, then hit enter. The file name is "blue-shell-firefox-kde-pin-1000" no extra file extension (i.e. save) is necessary.
