package: iceweasel
severity: minor

I upgraded my etch system to have iceweasel wirh apt-get install iceweasel (btw 
it removed firefox but left mozilla-firefox, i don't think that is relavent to 
this issue though).

i got a couple of conffile prompts as below.

Configuration file `/etc/iceweasel/profile/bookmarks.html'
 ==> File on system created by you or by a script.
 ==> File also in package provided by package maintainer.
   What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
    Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
    N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
      D     : show the differences between the versions
      Z     : background this process to examine the situation
 The default action is to keep your current version.
*** bookmarks.html (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?

Configuration file `/etc/iceweasel/pref/iceweasel.js'
 ==> File on system created by you or by a script.
 ==> File also in package provided by package maintainer.

Please restart any running Iceweasels, or you will experience problems.

my understanding is that conffile prompts are only supposed to happen if files 
are either edited manually by the sysadmin or changed by a non-debian tool, i'm 
pretty sure neither was the case on this system.
