Title: [Solved] Iceweasel - stuck on Google! [It was a BUG]
Post by: Sector11 on March 11, 2013, 08:14:05 PM
Anyone else having a problem with the "Pick a Search Engine" in Iceweasel?

The manage tool isn't working either: (http://t.imgbox.com/acblOrYE.jpg) (http://imgbox.com/acblOrYE)

Only thing that works is in the main area - and it defaults to Google!

If this is a new feature for FireFox (Iceweasel) I'll kiss it goodby.

Starting today Iceweasel isn't letting me choose a search engine:

"Search or Enter Address" takes me directly to Google - Do not use Yahoo, do not use Duck-Duck-Go, do not collect $200.

If this becomes the norm it will be

Iceweasel:
Go directly to Jail, do not pass GOogle, do not collect $200.


Seriously - anyone else notice this?

Yes, it is a bug in the latest iceweasel where all search engines fail from the search bar

It is a real pain, I use that quite a bit

I just open up a google page and search from there

Hope they get it fixed soon.

I ended up installing this add on InstantFox (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=instantfox&appver=21.0a2&platform=linux) ...

I had been wanting a single bar for both URL and Search anyway and this adds it.. it is also very flexible in adding new or managing search engines

Issue resolved with the latest dist-upgrade and iceweasel update that came with it
