Package: iceweasel
Version: 31.6.0esr-1~deb7u1
Severity: minor

Desktop etc pub tmp usr
$ rmdir Desktop

No Iceweasel-related configuration initially. At no point did I ask
iceweasel to do anything with any files. This ~/Desktop directory should
not be springing into existence: that filename space belongs to me, not
the program. Iceweasel also creates a ~/.mozilla directory, which is
acceptably within the bounds of Unix convention, though it still ought
to be mentioned in the man page.
