Package: iceweasel
Version: 2.0+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
I installed a new system using debootstrap sid.
I installed firefox aka. iceweasel.
I tried to run it. firefox or iceweasel simply exited with code 1.
I ran strace -f on my new machine and the old one. Filing the report on
the old one. Saw weirdness with chrome and greprefs not being found in
strace of new deboostrapped box.
I compared dpkg --get-selections on both boxes...
.. and guessed.
apt-get install fileutils
firefox
I highly doubt this could be a fix. If you look at the fileutils package
you'll see it's just a stub predepending on coreutils, which is an
essential package. So fileutils isn't actually doing anything at this point.
AND NOW IT WORKS!
So it seems someone missed a dependency in an install script somewhere.
Why am I always the one to find these kinds of bugs.

ps. system below is the old system (also debian sid/unstable recently up
to date).
