As explained here: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/feature-freeze-
exception-seeding-the-official-firefox-snap-in-ubuntu-desktop/24210,
we're moving to a snap package for firefox.

The good news is, that snap is based on core20, which supports riscv64.

There will probably be build dependencies that need work though,
starting with clang, which doesn't appear to be distributed as a binary
package for RISC-V (from a cursory glance at
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases).

Packaging for the firefox snap is at
https://code.launchpad.net/~mozilla-snaps/+git/firefox-snap,
contributions welcome!
