Raspbian Wheezy has IceWeasel ( Firefox ESR 31.8.0 )

Raspbian Jessie has IceWeasel ( Firefox ESR 38.4.0 ) with the latest dist-upgrade

fyi IceWeasel has always been based of Firefox Extended Support Release https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/


...all this and much more can be found out by Googling :shock:


Debian no longer list IceCat (SeaMonkey) in their Repository :shock:

Look for IceApe instead of IceCat in Wheezy, that was the other rebranded name Debian used ;)

Seems like removed from Jessie ;)

IceApe is based on seamonkey
IceWeasel was renamed IceCat based and based on Firefox.
Of course IceCat is never uptodate on Raspbian repo :x
Thanks
