Package: iceweasel Version: 3.0.1-1 Severity: important I just installed Debian sid on my laptop and iceweasel simply would not work. Starting from the menu would do nothing and starting from the command line would silently fail. After strace the process, I found that it couldn't read/write to the .mozilla directory. Sure enough the directory was owned by root and the permissions were 600. I have no idea how that happened as it's a new install. My best guess is that I ran something with sudo that used the mozilla libraries before actually trying to run iceweasel. The real problem though is that iceweasel doesn't actually say why it fails; it just fails. Giving a message like "permissions on profile directory wrong" or something would be very useful.
