With this in stable, we can say to anyone who wants to keep Iceweasel:
"Run this command:
sudo apt-get install xul-ext-iceweasel-branding"
Why is the compatibility symlink shipped in the iceweasel package
insufficient? If this is just about the title of the window that
appears, I'm not sure that's a thing worth going to these lengths to
deal with.
I do have some sympathy with the branding suddenly changing in stable
and causing some immediate confusion, but it's really not the end of the
world and quite straightforward to understand. It's long been known that
browsers are a moving target for stable.
Without bothering about backports. It is just a rare exception.
I don't understand where backports comes into this.
