In this case the change is debian specific and should be removed in ubuntu.
About open bug or similar, I not use latest ubuntu in develop but only
debian sid/experimental for give a small help about cinnamon and Trusty
when I try debian improvements in my ppa
(https://launchpad.net/~fantonifabio/+archive/ubuntu/cinnamon-testing/+packages)
to propose also upstream if possible when developers use mint based on
Trusty and want debian folder changes still working on it.

In this case the case the change is very simple and fast:

  * Removed debian/patches/replace_firefox_with_iceweasel not needed by ubuntu.
  * debian/cinnamon.gsettings-override: iceweasel->firefox.

I send this mail because I saw that now is missed.

About double screensaver problem in ubuntu is solved in debian with cinnamon-session 2.2.2-1

Other themes settings will be probably improved in debian.

automount problem is solved for next cinnamon-session and settings-daemon packages.

ubuntu's muffin patch was added for next debian version.

than for now the only changes needed in ubuntu is the browser in favorites above.

Thanks for any reply and sorry for my bad english.
