Thanks for reporting this issue.

Yes, forefox and thunderbird packages frequently change even in stable.

The package selection needed for parl-desktop-world happens to match a 
metapackage provided by firefox, but that is a special case unsuitable 
in general for Debian parl and the underlying boxer dataset.
