I was entirely sure I had asked to install from backports, so this further
email from you made me explore why, if I had not, I had not succeeded.
The answer? I still had:
deb http://mozilla.debian.net wheezy-backports iceweasel-esr icedove-esr
in my sources list when it should now have been:
deb http://mozilla.debian.net wheezy-backports iceweasel-esr icedove-release
One short edit of my sources list later, I now have Iceweasel 30. Thank
you!! :-)
