Ok, have done some more testing ... and after a crash of my main user sessionĀ :o ... here are the results.
I followed the recommendation in the link posted by UNLIMITY (thanks!) and deleted the relevant entry in
/usr/lib/firefox/distribution/searchplugins/locale/<language>/duckduckgo.xml
After restarting the browser the "&t=canonical" part in the address is gone
Questions remain:
* At what stage and how is duckduckgo.xml getting this entry?
* Why are you not running into the same need to edit duckduckgo.xml?
