Description:
There is no Firefox 3 available (neither for i686 nor for x86-64).
Firefox 4.x still has compatibility issues with some SSL-VPNs for instance. Besides it is quite resource hungry, slow and works horrible via X11 forwarding SSH due to it's new, "fancy" GL rendering.
I think there should at least be a choice.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
3.6.17

* config and/or log files etc.

Steps to reproduce:
search for firefox 3.6.x package and there is no any.
This task depends upon
