Re: Possible MBF: Packages depending on iceweasel but not firefox/firefox-esr

[Jakub Wilk <jwilk@debian.org>]

Can someone explain why we are bringing Firefox back? Are we going to 
rename it again if^Wwhen Mozilla stops liking us?

Also, why there are two firefox* packages, and what's the difference 
between them? (They have identical descriptions...)

So let's fix Depends of the transitional package. No MBF is needed.
