Bug#817977: firefox: Please add Conflicts & Provides for iceweasel

Package: firefox
Version: 45.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

please add Conflicts: Iceweasel and Provides: Iceweasel to firefox, as it is otherwise not possible to install the firefox package and to remove the iceweasel package without installing firefox-esr, too. 

And this in turn leads to two /usr/bin/firefox links on the system which results in an apt error:

Preparing to unpack .../firefox-esr_45.0esr-1_amd64.deb ...
Removing 'diversion of /usr/bin/firefox to /usr/bin/firefox.real by iceweasel'
dpkg-divert: error: rename involves overwriting '/usr/bin/firefox' with
different file '/usr/bin/firefox.real', not allowed
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/firefox-esr_45.0esr-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/firefox-esr_45.0esr-1_amd64.deb

Maybe a Conflicts: firefox-esr is also needed. :-)

Greetings
Winnie
