ACK; I really doubt whether rawhide's firefox can be called 'Firefox'.
The applied patches lower quality and reputation of the Mozilla Firefox
product significantly (buttugly icons, removed functionality for upgrading
extensions with security leaks) so I do not see how the Mozilla Foundation
could accept this package as an official build or a "Community Edition";
it is definitively an "Iceweasel".
