No more xulrunner? / iceweasel 30.0~b3-1~bpo70+1 and 31.0~a2+20140511004003-1~bpo70+1 contain broken link to xulrunner-{30,31}

Hi,

both, iceweasel 30.0~b3-1~bpo70+1 and 31.0~a2+20140511004003-1~bpo70+1
contain broken link at /usr/lib/iceweasel/xulrunner to ../xulrunner-30
respectively ../xulrunner-31, but there are no more xulrunner packages
anymore, hence those links are dead.

The latest xulrunner-30 packages I got was 30.0~b2-1~bpo70.

The changelog of recent iceweasel packages reads:

  * […] debian/xulrunner*: Removed.
  […]
  * […] Revert changes that are irrelevant now that Iceweasel is not a
    xulrunner application.

I don't care how iceweasel works internally since I don't use
iceweasel, but what does now happen to programs which are still
xulrunner applications and hence depend on xulrunner?

      Regards, Axel (who's more and more annoyed by Mozilla's decisions)
