Bug#648244: iceweasel: XML error preventing start: chrome://browser/content/browser.xul

[Paul Menzel]

Package: iceweasel
Version: 8.0-3
Severity: important

Dear Debian folks,


after today’s upgrades from version 7.0.1-4, Iceweasel does start, but
for one user a window is displayed with the following (German) error
message.

        XML-Verarbeitungsfehler: Nicht definierte Entität
        Adresse: chrome://browser/content/browser.xul
        Zeile Nr. 901, Spalte 7:      <label value="&backForwardButtonMenu.tooltip;"/>
        ------^

The Addons check does not even come up before and in the window no
location bar is present.

Additionally »failed to create drawable« is printed to the terminal with
all user accounts.

        $ iceweasel
        failed to create drawable

Lastly at one user starting Iceweasel the Addons were checked taking
quite a long time before they were listed and in the start site clicking
on »Restore session« the Iceweasel window just closed. Nothing was
printed to the terminal though. Starting Iceweasel again and choosing
»Restore Session« Iceweasel did not close. So this is not reproducible.


Thanks and I am sorry for the crappy bug title,

Paul
