Google Toolbar on Ubuntu Hardy Heron

I love the Google Toolbar, because it allows me to use Google's bookmark service embedded to my browser. So I can use the toolbar on a Mac, Windows or Linux machine and have my bookmarks everywhere I am.
But with the cool new version 3 of my favorite browser Firefox the toolbar stopped working. Firefox crashed after installing (and disabling compatibility test in Firefox ;-)).
Now a new version is available and the Toolbar is back to my Firefox :-)
But on Ubuntu there is still a problem with the bookmarks. To fix it, just type the following into your terminal:

sudo apt-get install libxul-dev libstdc++5 gcc-4.2 libstdc++6

Than reinstall the toolbar, if you allready tried without success. Now your bookmarks should work even on Ubuntu :-)
