Because I'm running Etch amd64. There is no flashplayer for amd64 and
no wrapper (as there is in Lenny). So a browser plus flash needs to be
in a chroot. I'm on dialup and iceweasel has frequent enough security
replacment (and its a big download when that happens) that I only want
one copy to have to maintain; in the i386 chroot. My normal day-to-day
browsing is with Konqueror amd64 and requires neither flash nor
javascript.
