Alas, as detailed @ link above, I cannot: I must run a VPN which
- the developer (F5) only supports for linux clients as browser plugins (?!?) for firefox-3.x and firefox-8.x
- my workplace's servers' version of the F5 backend only supports the frontend version that runs on firefox-3.x
and there are no 64-bit builds of firefox-3.x. But it gets worse :-(
As detailed @ link above, I have formerly made firefox-3.6.28+F5NAP work on two different debian boxes! Including one virtually identical to the box in question! So this is a *solved* problem ... I just don't know the solution :-(

Indeed. Where to report this bug?
