That might seem weird to you, but to others a changing computer is a very weird and hostile thing. Often these people are amongst the elderly, but not always… :) And while I applaud and understand why firefox-esr has replaced iceweasel in stable, I was also surprised. And I also saw Debian Edu stable break because of this… and we're still fixing it, waiting for 8.6 to bring these fixes to our users. (The latter is not related to this bug report except that they are caused by the same change. We are fixing Debian Edu to use firefox-esr.) -- cheers, Holger
