Why is this a bad idea? According to
http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianMozExtTeam the binary package should
be named xul-ext-mozgest. So why should the source package for
xul-ext-mozgest be mozilla-mozgest? I think the source for xul-ext-$NAME
should be $NAME.

The "iceweasel (>= 2.0) | icedove (>= 2.0)" causes an empty Recommends.
This is what I get:

xpi:Depends=abrowser-3.0 | abrowser-3.5 | abrowser-3.6 | firefox-3.0 |
firefox-3.5 | firefox-3.6 | iceape | icedove | iceweasel | seamonkey |
thunderbird | thunderbird-3.0

You can see "icedove | iceweasel" in there.

Cheers,
Benjamin
