Thanks for adding to the bug report --- I had been a bit busy then travelling without internet access for almost three weeks so had not got around to it. >> A number of a new iceweasel versions have been uploaded to unstable >> but they all fail to build on the buildds because we are still waiting >> for the fixes for: >> >> http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=650151 >> >> to be applied. > > Might check and see if they made it into the 12.0 code base. Latest > comments on 650151 hint that may be the case. That version has come through to experimental but it will be some time (maybe a week) before the build daemon will get to it because we have a backlog of some 500 packages to build in unstable (plus another 100 or 200 binNMUs to be scheduled too). OK, I'll see if I can do a manual build of iceweasel 12.0 this weekend. I won't build the latest version in unstable as there is no point in building a version that still has the madvise() lockup bug.
