GNU IceCat?



Hi.

Is there any reason (other than lack of manpower) that GNU IceCat is not
packaged in Debian?

I understand Debian has IceWeasel to (primarily?) fix the Firefox
trademark issue and to have a mechanism to deal with security backports.

IceCat has diverged from Firefox/Iceweasel and has a different feature
set than both, so it would seem reasonable to have it available through
Debian.

I see there is a 4 year old ITP for this [1] however there were no
discussions in that thread to indicate why nothing happened.
