Package: icedove
Version: 2.0.0.0-3
Severity: important
Since upgrading to 2.0.0.0-3, clicking on http links (in, e.g. rss feeds or
email messages) fails to load those links in my browser (iceweasel).
Due to other bugs, I purged icedove and reinstalled it, but this bug
remains. No errors show up in the icedove console.

Since none of the submitters is able to reproduce this in wheezy I'm
closing the report.
