It was not usable for me, really not.
Could you elaborate more precisely on how IceCat misbehaved? I've been
using IceCat as my primary web browser for a couple of years now, and
have found it to work very well. I've not heard other GuixSD users
reporting problems like this.
As I rebooted often I restarted IceCat quite often and about one in two
it doesn't show (maybe load) the websites. So I gave in the url, hit
enter but there was nothing beside a white page (just white). I disabled
all add-ons. If I remember correct there where websites who worked,
gnu.org definitively doesn't work.
And without all those FOSS add-ons on addons.mozilla.org
Icecat/Firefox is bad.
It is true that addons.mozilla.org is not the default site that is
visited from within the "Get Add-ons" portion of the built-in
"about:addons" page. However, as far as I know, you should be able to
manually visit addons.mozilla.org and install the add-ons there. Did
you try that?
I tried installing from addons.mozilla.org but without success. There
was an error message.
