Indeed, having now done an upgrade myself (I use apt-get, not dselect)
I see that the latest mozilla that is in testing is what would force
my (old) galeon package out.  I haven't tried, but I would hope that
picking up a new galeon from unstable would correct these
dependencies.  For myself, I'm leaving the mozilla stuff on hold until
some other time.
