Package: iceweasel
Version: 26.0-1
Followup-For: Bug #703472
I've found a workaround for this issue, for both iceweasel and icedove.
Launch the app from a terminal (xterm, etc.), backgrounded, and then dismiss
the terminal. I.e. open a terminal and run "iceweasel &" or "icedove &",
and then "exit". This seems to keep the zombies at bay.
