So how does one use the latest version of this web browser on Stable ?
If I were you, I would temporarily enable testing, unstable and
experimental repos, grab iceweasel and dependencies from experimental
and then disabling the repos.
Hm sounds like a plan. Do you know offhand which Debian distro has 3.5.x ?
If the experimental version needs to update a lot of libraries (many
experimental packages do), and you have a good reason to want to run
stable, I would instead suggest keeping with stable for almost all apps,
and installing a chroot environment to run the few unstable/experimental
apps you want in a more sandboxed environment.
As I understand it, I think that should be enough for your need. Later,
when a proper backport of iceweasel 3.5 arrives, you can use it under
stable.
I have successfully used this method when I wanted to install stuff form
experimental or form third party sources (that I do not trust).
See <http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/566> for more info.
Good luck.
