please be aware that phoenix installs settings which will end up deleting your
browsing history when you close your browser after installing the package. This
is also mentioned in the package description further down. I'm writing this
here in the hopes that none of those reading this ends up nuking their browser
history.

I want to add a debconf override for this and upstream wants to help with
making this easier but as usual, additional help from those who know more about
firefox configuration settings than I do, is welcome. :)

Thanks!

cheers, josch
