I made Iceweasel32 the package name for users of the amd64 version of Ubuntu. Signifing that it is a 32bit package in a 64bit system. Just as the 32bit firefox is named firefox32.
It is also the location in a 64bit system of /usr/local/Iceweasel32 where on a i386 its placed in /usr/local/Iceweasel. It's also the name of the startup script in /usr/bin/ for a 64bit user, I know fatsheep runs the 64bit version . :D
Just as a note, Im a him. I also like the firefox logo in this thread and will be using it for the next set of packages.
Re: HOWTO: Install IceWeasel Web browser in Dapper or Edgy
Is there a way to get the Iceweasel icon to replace the blank windows menu icon in the upper left corner of the browser?
Re: HOWTO: Install IceWeasel Web browser in Dapper or Edgy

I have yet to run into an extension that didn't work, but I only use about four.
As far as changing out that corner icon ... I really don't know. I'll keep my eyes peeled. ;)
Re: HOWTO: Install IceWeasel Web browser in Dapper or Edgy
it is stramnge cuz you will get the same errors as you would get from firefox but it says iceweasel. I think extentions and themes have no clue it is different.

I haven't had much experience in programming linux applications, but from my windows experience, that icon would be based on an internal icon/image resource built into the binary of the application. In other words, in order for it to use that icon, the person doing the development of the package would have to include that as an image resource somewhere within the app.
Please correct me if I am wrong! But hopefully that answers your question? :)
Re: HOWTO: Install IceWeasel Web browser in Dapper or Edgy
BTW...for those that got used to middle clicking to close a tab like I did...and considering that iceweasel doesn't include this ability...theres an extension for it:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/260/

In Firefox, the icon can be changed by changing the image file, there is a script somewhere on this forum which does this (restore_mozilla_icons changes the icons to the official mozilla icons).
The window corner icon is a default icon for gnome i think, so it shouldnt be in the iceweasel binary.
Maybe the current code doesn't look for a specific Iceweasel icon though, and just takes the default application icon (just a guess)?

That's kind of what I suspected. I hadn't the experience or the proof of it, but it seemed logical.
I'm guessing once the Gnuzilla team settles on icons, they'll appear in the corner.
