yep

giuseppe: the problem reduces exactly to this. The icecat script
contains run-mozilla.sh while it should contain run-icecat.sh. It is
trivial to run a sed on the icecat script which will change all
occurrences of run-mozilla.sh into run-icecat.sh, but I think that this
should be fixed upstream in the build/install procedure (i.e. by you
:)).

thank you very much for your time and for icecat

ciao
