Package: iceweasel
Version: 8.0-3~bpo60+1
Severity: wishlist
The addons page/tab connect to an external page when you open it.
Just like a while ago you (Mike Hommey) caused iceweasel to not connect to an
external page for the home page, I would like to ask you do the same here.
I was able to override it locally by clearing extensions.webservice.discoverURL
and I think that should be the default.

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src:iceweasel has been superseded by src:firefox-esr in version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.
