Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.0.3-1
Severity: normal
Since version 3.0.3-1, application name was changed in iceweasel to
fix #428836. Apparently because of this, searching for addons
(extensions) from the Tools/Addons menu no longer works. Additionally,
clicking on the link to show all addons on that window redirects to
https://addons.mozilla.org/it/firefox/iceweasel (broken link). I think
the change in browser/app/application.ini may be responsible of this
behaviour.
I haven't been able to test 3.0.3-2 (not in mirrors yet for i386) but
I suspect it's still broken, because I recompiled 3.0.3-1 with the
debdiff attached for bug #501304 [1] to no avail.
However, search functionality is restored by going to about:config and
manually changing a few instances of %APP% to firefox, e.g. in
extensions.getAddons.search.browseURL,
extensions.getAddons.search.url; I haven't been able to restore the
link so far.
browser/app/profile/firefox.js in the sources seems to hold the
default values for the aforementioned configuration.
If possible, it would be nice to restore functionality for the default
configuration.
Please let me know if you need more details or assistance.
Best regards,
Pier Luigi Pau
