Package: firefox-esr
Version: 52.5.2esr-1~deb9u1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
the firefox-esr package contains several addons installed under
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/browser/features/:
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/browser/features/aushelper at mozilla.org.xpi
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/browser/features/e10srollout at mozilla.org.xpi
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/browser/features/firefox at getpocket.com.xpi
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/browser/features/webcompat at mozilla.org.xpi
Those addons are not required for normal browser operation and slow it down.
Please make it possible to remove them by splitting them into separate
packages. The main firefox-esr package may still recommend them to keep them
installed by default, but it shouldn't have a strong dependency on them.

Regards,
Dmitry Mikhirev
