In Firefox, I have two tabs corresponding to Debian bugs.
One has a correct favicon, the other one doesn't.
See attached screenshot.
Both bug pages have
<link rel="icon" href="/favicon.png">
So I don't understand why I get a difference, in particular
because in Firefox, with Tools → Page Info, then Media tab,
I get for https://bugs.debian.org/favicon.png
The image “https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=favicon.png;dist=unstable” cannot be displayed because it contains errors.
With wget:
qaa:~> wget https://bugs.debian.org/favicon.png <17:52:05

favicon.png: HTML document, Unicode text, UTF-8 text, with very long lines (511)
which explains the error.
Then after a forced reload (Ctrl-Shift-R), I no longer get the
correct favicon.
Note that https://www.debian.org/Bugs/ does not have such a
<link rel="icon" ...>, and this page has the correct favicon.
