Actually, it's more a fine example of why temporary fixes need to be
done right from the start. (the fix for #413964 was responsible of this
issue, because by then, I thought 1.8.0.10 would be the last upstream
before etch...)

Anyways, 1.8.0.11-2 uploaded, with a new tabextensions, too, that
removes "Iceweasel" from the description. You may want to unblock both.
