packaging for debian

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello project members of firetray,

thanks for working on firetray. We are using firetray on linux client systems 
whith icedove 3.0.*. Basically we are using debian as operation system and i 
try to package firetray for debian upstream[1]. I hope you will be ok with it. 
At this moment i work on version 0.2.8 but i try to make it dfsg [2] 
compatible. For that i need to change all icons/pixmarks with an incomatible 
licence or trademark to free ones. Do you have some other free one icons which 
i can use for that? (example: sunbird, firetray it self...) .

if you are not ok with the icons, you can use the system's ones. That is what I 
am doing on Fedora :

thx for the idea. I will change the patch an try to use all dfsg-free icons 
which i can find at debian standard installs like...icedove, ice*...

For the firetray icon it self i need to create a new one, Creative Commons 
Attribution-Share Alike 2.5 isn't dfsg compatible.

You can just remove it, the extension will run fine without it

I just changed the firetray icon licence to GPL. If somebody could point me to 
suitable images, I'd like to substitute the other icons with dfsg-compatible 
ones.
