After a fresh install of Ubuntu I noticed that I was not automatically offered to upgrade to the latest version of the Mozilla Firefox web browser.
In order to get always the latest Firefox version I decided to use the Ubuntuzilla packages:
- Open a command line terminal (Appplications > Accessories > Terminal)
- Execute following commands one after the other:
-
echo -e "\ndeb http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ubuntuzilla/mozilla/apt all main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list > /dev/null -
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com C1289A29 -
sudo apt-get update -
sudo apt-get install firefox-mozilla-build
-
