Out of curiosity and having a few minutes right now, I tried following the instructions in an oneiric chroot on an amd64 host and I hit the following issues.
- /etc/apt.conf.d does not really exist. so I had to create one and
put 10local into it.
Another typo - this should have been /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ . wiki updated.
- While following the instructions as in "Drag-in build dependencies
for firefox"

Is there something I might be doing wrong ?
No, it appears for some reason NEWS.gz is different on armel and amd64 package, and thus multi-arch: same install is refused. Usually using gzip -n fixes that, but this package was already doing it. This appears to be a case of:

I've uploaded a new libtasn which doesn't compress NEWS file as workaround. I'm also updating the firefox in repository to 8.0, the demo was based on 7.0. I'll update when all the changes have landed.
