I like their tar.gz... makes things very portable (untar to /opt and
you're done)...

To be honest, let alone any packaging, I'd me much happier if they just
*worked* on Linux-Firefox a bit more... When compared to Windows'
Firefox (from my experience), it's like an old and unmaintained
Volkswagen Beetle...

Instead, they keep releasing x+1 versions before making x stable...
which makes x+1 even less stable.
