the tag <em:requires> is obsolete / not longer supported and in fact it
is ignored by icedove (i tested it with a non resolvable dependency but
timeline still works). This is also documented on
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Install_Manifests 

A dependency to iceowl / iceowl-extension is declared in the package
(as soon as #705918 is fixed) so this should work for the most cases.

Best wishes,
Matthias
