The way I always use/install Firefox, is by downloading the latest from
Mozilla,
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/
this way I always have the latest, and as soon as it is released. I
always install(just extract the contents of the .tar.gz) mine to /usr/
local/firefox, then just make a shortcut/launcher pointing to /usr/local/
firefox/firefox, make it the default browser, and away I go. When a new
version is released I just delete the folder /usr/local/firefox, and
extract the new one, and continue on. I also add -profilemanager to the
command line, eg
/usr/local/firefox/firefox -profilemanager
and create a new profile, so as it doesn't mess up/have any problems with
profiles made by certain distro's default firefox install, or in Debian's
case, Iceweasel, and just select the new profile at browser star up.
