Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.0.14-1

In my system, there are two systemwide plugins I do not wish to use in
Iceweasel - /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libskypebuttons.so which came
with kopete (which I use and I can't "just uninstall" it) and
/usr/lib/swfdec-mozilla/libswfdecmozilla.so (uninstalling it is also
not an option).

I have also installed some my plugins that I use in
/usr/local/lib/plugins/ and set
MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/local/lib/plugins/

However, even if the system paths are NOT present in the
MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH, the systemwide plugins are loaded, causing problems
and conflicts with my plugins

In /usr/lib/iceweasel/iceweasel I noticed that if the MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH
is set, systemwide paths are prepended to it and I found no switch or
env. variablke I can set to avoid this.

Iceweasel should allow overriding  MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH in a way so I can
tell it to NOT use systemwide plugins (by excluding them from the
variable).

There is workaround by copying /usr/lib/iceweasel/iceweasel to ~/bin
and modifying it, but it is far from ideal (may stop working properly
once iceweasel gets upgraded).
