Package: iceweasel Version: 3.5.16-16 Severity: wishlist The problem with Debian's IceWeasel, is that it becomes outdated so fast, during Debian's stable lifecycle, so that some sites do not work with it (properly) anymore. Real-world problem: GMail, which degrades me to Basic HTML, vs. full experience. (due to outdated version of Iceweasel). HTML5 sites / games also refuse to work.
What I would like to do, is to install & run Mozilla FireFox side-by-side with Debian's IceWeasel. Actual Result: Currently, if I start Mozilla FireFox, then Iceweasel I get this ERROR: "Iceweasel is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Iceweasel process, or restart your system." NOTE: I realize this is upstream limitation of FireFox. Just I ask to use a different default namespace (or how is it named in FireFox lingo?) for Iceweasel, so those two browsers never ever collide, if possible, and can run side-by-side. Expected Result: The two browsers should run side-by-side, no collisions. NOTE 2: Google Chrome and Debian's Chromium *do work* side-by-side, no problems. I am using Debian GNU/Linux 6.0. I believe this problem also related to upcoming Debian 7.0/Wheezy and it's Iceweasel v10-ESR. -- -Alexey Eromenko "Technologov" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
