Hey Clément,

id is maybe a bit generic?

It does not appear clearly that one has to install ublock-origin-icecat
here. We have the same issue for ublock-origin-chromium though.

You could add a small header explaining the content of that patch, ...

..., as well as that one.

I tried a guix shell icecat ublock-origin-icecat and it worked perfectly
:) It is also very appreciated to have a pre-built icecat by the QA :).

Thanks,

Mathieu
