Package: iceweasel
Version: 44.0-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
the newly introduced feature of privacyprotection within firefox doesn't work
with iceweasel, as the blocking lists are
not downloaded. Using the same profile with firefox results in downloading the
blocking lists.
When switching back to iceweasel the tracking protection works now, however the
update of the list still fails.
This could be related to #808208 or #518357. As the trackingprotection is a
huge step forward in user security it would be
a wise idea to get it running in iceweasel without flaws.
Greetings
Patrick

Version: 115.12.0esr-1+rm
src:iceweasel has been superseded by src:firefox-esr in version
45.0esr-1 in March 2016. Transitional packages to ease upgrades were
provided in the wheezy, jessie, stretch and buster releases. The
transitional packages have been removed finally before the bullseye
release in August 2021.
After regular security support for buster ended in August 2022 and LTS
support ended in June 2024, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
