you could try ubuntuzilla
It is recommended that you use the ubuntuzilla repository rather than
download individual files.
Read the instructions on the project website,
http://ubuntuzilla.sourceforge.net/ for details.
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com C1289A29
echo -e "\ndeb
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ubuntuzilla/mozilla/apt all main" \
| sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list > /dev/null
but be aware you will be some what on the bleeding edge
