My Deepin system keep reinstalling Firefox, Web and Document Viewer, I didn't have this issue before.

I can't remove those apps, because after I removed it, it will come back by itself.

Document Viewer and Web:

After uninstalling Document Viewer and Web, Firefox ESR comes out:

  • This is a known problem, there is a package that requires a WebBrowser, removing Firefox will install Web, removing Web will install Firefox

  • You need to find the dependency, delete the dependency, and then delete Firefox

  • We will try to replicate this in a local environment

  • OK,这个要看最近安装了什么,电脑上看下启动器里面或者应用商店安装的软件~
  • 应该是有pdf viewer依赖这些~

Firefox-esr provide two virtual packages:

Provides: gnome-www-browser, www-browser

I wonder why other browsers don't offer it.
