Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.0.12-1
Severity: normal

Link Widgets (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2933)
is one of my favorite iceweasel/firefox extensions. It provides
widgets the user can put on toolbars, for navigating a page
hierarchy ("up", "next", "previous" etc). Targets are found in
several ways -- guessing by URL (e.g. cutting a path component for
up, incrementing a number for next), following <link> elements
with the right relations, or even <a href="..."> links with the
right descriptive contents.

For some time now (I'm not sure if since 3.0) it stopped working
on my iceweasel in a mysterious way -- the widgets are still
visible, but they are always disabled, as if no suitable target
could be found for any of them (when the extension as a whole
is disabled, the widgets are simply not shown).

I have it working fine on another computer I use, with Firefox 3.0
under OpenSUSE 11.1. I've tested it on my Debian under my user
with a fresh profile, and also under a user whose Firefox hasn't
been used, and it broke in exactly the same way. On the fresh
profile, I made the extra step of disabling all plugins, to no
avail.

As far as I can see, this leaves only one possible culprit: 
the Iceweasel packaging.

Thanks,
Shai.
