Firefox 50 on Ubuntu Mate via xrdp renders wrong colors due to this bug.

When I try to uninstall Firefox 50 and install 49 as described in this answer usin sudo apt-get purge firefox, I get this output:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  firefox* ubuntu-mate-desktop*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 2 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
After this operation, 113 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

Does this meaning that continuing with the command, it will uninistall my Mate desktop as well?

Can I avoid that?

  • It'll uninstall the meta-package only. But even so why don't you try upgrading to the Dev edition instead of downgrading? It should be fixed by now.
