GNU IceCat 3.6.2 was released, it includes all changes made upstream in Firefox 3.6.2 plus some other small bug fixes. And now the privacy extension sets the User-Agent string provided by the browser to the web sites to a fixed value to reduce tracking risks of your browser.

Currently Firefox and IceCat conflict presumably due to the lack of a bump for IceCat: net-libs/xulrunner:1.9 ('ebuild', '/', 'net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.2-r5', 'merge') pulled in by ~net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.2[wifi,java,libnotify,-system-sqlite] required by ('installed', '/', 'www-client/icecat-3.6-r1', 'nomerge') (and 5 more) ('ebuild', '/', 'net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.2.3', 'merge') pulled in by ~net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.2.3[wifi,java,libnotify,-system-sqlite] required by ('ebuild', '/', 'www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.6.3', 'merge') (and 5 more)
Jimmy nice attempt. I have not added the privacy extention at this point will make that a new revision in a few days.
