[aur-general] Firefox orphan cleanup
These are the current firefox-related orphans that could be removed. There is no merge required, these are only candidates for removal. Happy nuking :p
------------------
The following packages have a dead source url, I think they are safe to remove: firefox-extension-convergence : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=56428 firefox-form-widgets : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11637 firefox-nightly-qt-bin : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45473 firefox-nightly-tm : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41393 firefoxqs : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9800
