I'm not really sure how this is possible. The firefox package ships the
/usr/bin/firefox symlink, this hasn't changed in ages and you seem to
 be
the only person with this problem.

Could you please post the output of "ls -l /usr/bin/firefox" and "dpkg
-L firefox", and also attach your /var/lib/dpkg/diversions.

Thanks
