There most likely will not be a backport or update to the repos, especially
as Dapper is a LTS. IIRC once firefox 1.5 was released no backport was done
either, as this would (at the time anyway) have involved updates to ~50 apps
that depend on firefox. As noted above, try unofficial repos or grab firefox
2.0 from http://www.getfirefox.com/
