Package: firefox-esr
Version: 45.0esr-1
Severity: important

With the switch from iceweasel to firefox, many stuff broke. One of them
ist the search.

First it resets all shortcuts so my search on duckduckgo went to debian.
But this is not the bug I want to describe here.

After fixing that, I found out that they also changes the duckduckgo
search in a way that it doesn't work anymore. When I search with it, it
gives a duckduckgo page with just the search line but nothing below. If
I search manually for the same topic, I get many results.

That might have to do with the fact that I never ever allow javascript.
But nevertheless, that worked well in the past and duckduckgo does not
need any javascript; only on that result page from firefox.

So, I was trying to download a new search from mozilla addon page (That
worked with other searches in the past with iceweasel) but every
(duckduckgo-)search I tried did fail with the message that it is broken.

So, finally, the new update from iceweasel to firefox broke the most
important functionality for the browser to search stuff. (Sure, I can go
to the main search page first, but using a browser is a pain in the a...
at all so I don't want to use it more than needed.)
