Thanks.

 can you post your mailcap hack?

Sure. Here it is:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat .mailcap 
text/pgp; /usr/bin/iceweasel '%s'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I guess that this just shows that I'm not that good with graphical
tools, but that I can work my way with the command line without doing
too many damages. :-)

  I'm sure there is a 'proper' way to do this, but the quick hack which
  works right now is to specify /usr/bin/firefox (or iceweasel,
  whatever) as the program to use to open this file (instead of the
  default less).
 
 Yes, how did you do that? I did that by creation of a .mailcap file here
 with the inclusion of the proper entry, but I could not do it inside the
 browser itself, which is a shame. :-(

okay, when you click on the *.changes file, it should be popping up a
dialog asking what to do with the file: whether to open it with less
or save the file. You can change the program used to open the
file. The dialog says You have chosen to open... What should
iceweasel do with this file? select Open With, click the list box
to the right, select Other... enter /usr/bin/firefox in the file
picker and away you go. 
 
  Works here, but forces the download dialog to appear as well (though
  that is a configurable item in edit-preferences. That's not really
  what you're after though, i'd bet.
 
 Yes, that's a semi-solution to the problem, but I could find an
 extension to the browser somewhere with Google that makes it open things
 with the browser, but as I don't want to have extensions (I want here a
 pretty minimal environment), I'm using the mailcap hack. :-(
