Dear Maintainer,

Before upgrade to iceweasel-35.0.1-1, when using the developer tools and
evaluating expressions in the console, the return key would cause evaluation
and print of the expression and clearing of the prompt. After the upgrade,
the enter causes evaluation and print of the expression, but the prompt
is NOT cleared. I've not experienced this behavior on any install of firefox
or iceweasel, hence I am reporting it!

Thanks in advance for any advice or investigation. Following is the reportbug
generated information.

src:iceweasel has been superseded by src:firefox-esr in version
45.0esr-1 in March 2016. Transitional packages to ease upgrades were
provided in the wheezy, jessie, stretch and buster releases. The
transitional packages have been removed finally before the bullseye
release in August 2021.
After regular security support for buster ended in August 2022 and LTS
support ended in June 2024, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
