Oh, this may be due to the .mozconfig line: mk_add_options MOZ_APP_DISPLAYNAME=TorBrowser Without that, it should call itself Iceweasel/Firefox again in all places. > More importantly, I've not seen any reply from you on the "how > annoying [...]" question above.

I thought the "how annoying" question was addressed to the Tails development list, not me. I don't care what you call your browser :). I might suggest that your non-Debian users will find it more understandable to have an "Insecure Browser" and a "Tor Browser", rather than an "Insecure Browser" and an "Iceweasel" (wtf is an Iceweasel anyway?) but that is for you to decide. -- Mike Perry
