Summary
Transition packages for the Icedove packages are provided which
automatically upgrade to the new version. Since new binary packages need
to be installed, make sure to allow that in your upgrade procedure (e.g.
by using "apt-get dist-upgrade" instead of "apt-get upgrade").
For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
1:45.8.0-3~deb7u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your icedove packages.
