Renamed.

Probably you meant install.rdf.
I was forgetting that we're also packaging it for ubuntu and was
hardcoding just "iceweasel (>= 3.6)" while you'd prefer adding
unversioned ${xpi:Recommends}.
On ubuntu, would this xpi generate more than one Recommends? If it would
not, I'd set back initial "${xpi:Recommends} (>= 3.6)" which should work
on both worlds and postpone further changes to next upstream release or
until anyone closes the bug I just filed http://bugs.debian.org/602051
Maybe you'll close such bug before I find a sponsor.


Thanks,
Gabriele
