Bug#758000: iceweasel: flashblock whitelist not saved

[Philip Ashmore]

Package: iceweasel
Version: 24.7.0esr-1~deb7u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
I want to whitelist youtube.com
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
When I whitelist youtube.com I can surf to sites with youtube links and when I
open the links the video starts playing immediately, as expected.
I shut down the machine as normal (by the way I'm running Trinity desktop, I
don't know if it's a factor).
   * What was the outcome of this action?
When I power up the machine the whitelist is empty.
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected the whitelist to be preserved across iceweasel restarts.
