Re: older and newer Versions of IceCat

[Gottfried <gottfried@posteo.de>]

	 How do you determine the version? Via the graphical info
		menu or on the commandline?

through the menu, in the graphical way

	
	What's the output of type -a icecat?

gfp@Tuxedo ~$ type -a icecat
icecat ist /home/gfp/.guix-profile/bin/icecat
