Google Toolbar Doesn’t Install On Debian

Debian change Firefox to Iceweasel. Since Google’s toolbar does not install as the installer does not recognize Iceweasel as Firefox. To get full Google Toolbar support:

  1. in the navigation: about: config
  2. filter for : general.useragent.extra.firefox
  3. change Iceweasel/2.0.0.4 To Firefox/2.0.0.4

Go back to Google Toolbar’s website, and install.

  1. does not work on iceweasel 2.0.0.4.
    Still asks to install FF 1.5 or higher.

  2. Thanks a lot.
    This hack works for Iceweasel/2.0.0.6.
    I can install GoogleToolbar after I change it to Firefox/2.0.0.6.
