Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.0.6-1
Severity: normal
iceweasel normally displays relevant entries from the browsing history when
I start to type in the location bar. This is becoming a more important feature
for me as bookmarks doesn't scale anymore. But sometimes this mechanism just
gets stuck - the history list doesn't open no matter what I type. I am not
sure about this but I think I see the whole "crome" area flickering very fast
when this happens. It could mean iceweasel is furiously trying to do something.
In any case, I can see no regular pattern at all in when it happens - no
correlation with the number of tabs, the page displayed in the current tab, etc.
I reproduced it in safe mode as well.
