Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.0~rc2-1
Severity: minor

The warning presented upon entering about:config states that by changing any 
setting contained therein i could void my warranty.  
Since Iceweasel is the debian fork of Firefox and debian is distributed without 
warranty, there would seem to be no way in which 
the circumstances described in the warning could be true.

It's also anoying.

It is not meant as serious as it may sound. The same text in other
languages does not necessarily talks about warranty (french, for
example), and the localization note reads:
<!-- LOCALIZATION NOTE: aboutWarningTitle.label should be attention
grabbing and playful -->

It's also possible to disable it easily.
