I'm not a maintainer. If it breaks you can keep both pieces.

This worked for me:-
wget -t 0
http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libv/libvpx/libvpx0_0.9.7.p1-2_i386.deb;
dpkg -i libvpx0_0.9.7.p1-2_i386.deb; apt-get install xulrunner-10.0;
apt-get install iceweasel

Modify to suit your location

NOTE: some sites have problems with the double digit version number.
Install a browser agent spoofer for work-around.
