yes - well;
your suggestion includes using of debian package manager which i do not have
and am not willing to install ( or any other package manager for that matter ).
i do not install binary packages and thus have no need for software that makes
it difficult to know what is happening in my machine.
i'll take a closer look on this if i just find the motivation ( i have working
icecat 3.6.16 )...
i just hoped someone would have cooked up patches in the usual and correct way
...
