Bug#695153: iceweasel: doesn't inform user when a download directory has insufficient permissions

[Eike Jesinghaus]

Package: iceweasel
Version: 17.0.1-1
Severity: minor
Tags: upstream

When downloading a file into a directory without enough permissions, the
file doesn't download in that directory (that's not the bug), but
iceweasel does not inform the user.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Remove the write permission of a directory (chmod u-w $directoryname)
2. Try to download any file into this directory

Iceweasel doesn't store this file in the download history nor in the directory.
Iceweasel does not inform the user about this.
