Thanks for the info and the link. It is helpful. However, my iceweasel version is 31.2.0esr-2~deb7u1 and Jessie currently has 31.2.0esr-3. I see that Iceweasel 34 is only in experimental. I will try your work around when it hits testing. raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
