yeah, but _right now_ it still works. There's no (big) "invest" needed.

http://packages.debian.org/browser-plugin-libreoffice

installed system-wide, as it should be (or by the admin in the users'
dirs). That UI option indeed was nonsense from the beginning.

Just tested:

LO 4.2.4 and Iceweasel 24.3.0 ESR -> works
LO 4.3 beta2 and Icweasel 29.0.1 -> works

It might be Mozilla wants to deprecate it (when?) but it's not there yet..

But I guess we need to live with it now (seeing it already agreed on
and pushed to gerrit...)

Thankfully only for 4.4 :)

Regards,

Rene
