[Intrepid] iceweasel-itsalltext: Depends: iceweasel (>= 2.0.0.3-1) but it is not installable

Hi,

I changed all what needed to install it cleanly in Firefox, but this extension doesn't show in the extension menu.
Can you please have a quick look?

Thanks,
Fabrice

 - Firefox 3 uses /usr/lib/firefox-addons/extensions/, /usr/lib/firefox/extensions/ is for Firefox 2. As this extensions works with both versions, you should place links into both locations.

Some additional issues:

 - The binary package should be called just by the name of the extensions, that is, "itsalltext".

 - The extension's files should go into their own folder (/usr/share/itsalltext, not /usr/share/firefox-extensions/itsalltext).

New debdiff with:
- Links in both directory, for Firefox 2 and Firefox 3
- Binary name changed to itsalltext
- Own directory for extension

By the way: now install and works fine (this comment has been edited in gedit) :-)
Thanks.

New debdiff without itsalltext.dirs (not useful)

Hello fabrice_sp,

Firefox 2 has been removed from the archive some time ago. Please
remove the link to its directory, /usr/firefox/extensions/. Also,
there is abrowser package, which is unbranded Firefox 3. Please add
optional dependency to it.

Thank you.

New debdiff:
- Change dependency to add abrowser
- Deleted installation for Firefox 2
- Bump minimum Firefox's version to 3.0

Looks good to me, except that Firefox 2 removal isn't mentioned in the
changelog. fabrice_sp, could you add that to your changelog entry?
Thanks again.

Uhm... Why should it be listed if it wasn't there before?

Uhm... abrowser provides firefox (and depends on firefox-3.0), so this
shouldn't really have been necessary.

In some way, support of Firefox 2 has been drop when I changed dependency on Firefox >= 3.0 instead of Firefox >= 2.0

About abrowser, as dependency is on Firefox and not Firefox-3.0, it makes sense to have abrowser or Firefox installed. I could have changed dependency to firefox-3.0, but I thought it was easier for the end user to have full package (either Firefox or abrowser).

Should be ok now :-)

Right, sorry. I skipped that detail. Everything is ok with this
debdiff then [1]. fabrice_sp, sorry for the unneeded additional work.

Great, I try improve the changelog and add a typo (extension -> dependency) XD.
