No one need wait for an official distro's deb or rpm to install and
enjoy the latest Mozilla products. There are easy to find download links
on the Mozilla web site. In most cases, simply fetch the tarball,
extract it to some homedir or /usr/local, and run it. Using it that way
will not interfere with various deps to your currently installed
Mozilla. That's how the developers, QA people, and unoffical testers do
it.
