Hello Vincent,

Many thanks for your bug report.

It would be easy to shortcut this by setting
<em:maxVersion>3.0.*</em:maxVersion> in install.rdf, which I did.
Unfortunately, BioFox does not seem to work with sequences in the cut-paste
buffer, and it uses an obsolete URL for PubMed searches.

I will try to contact upstream, but otherwise it might be the kiss of death for
biofox in Debian Lenny.

PS: I could not figure out how to start extensions in IceApe.

Have a nice day,
