Hi,

the current package needs to migrate in testing first, and then you need to check with
-release team if a stable-proposed-update is feasible or not
(I see esr is in wheezy-updates and jessie-updates, not backports).

backporting it is possible but useless I think.

I think this is the best idea


>/usr/share/applications/iceweasel.desktop (Iceweasel→Firefox ESR)


BTW, as maintainer you should be subscribed to bugs, and close them if useless/wrong/incomplete.
