Package: iceweasel
Version: 2.0.0.4-1
Severity: normal

If I set, for example, "see" to be my viewer for .h files, then see
tries to run a console editor, hanging iceweasel, as DISPLAY is unset.
(If I run see from an xterm, it uses an X editor for text files.)

This is not the same as a similar bug fixed before where firefox 1.5
tried to run less without a terminal; here, the problem is the
environment of the command that is run, as see should not itself be
run in a terminal, of course.
