Ubuntuzilla has a support forum in the third-party project area of the Ubuntu Forum. Therefore, if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, you can use it for feedback.

Why use Ubuntuzilla?

The answer is simple. For a specific version of Ubuntu release, the official repository contains the latest version of the software package for this version of Ubuntu release date. After the release, the updated software package is not added to the repository unless it is a security vulnerability fix. Users who use Ubuntuzilla can obtain the software and update it in a timely manner. The software has not been added to the official Ubuntu/Debian repository. Does it sound good? Well, that's it.

Add Ubuntuzilla Repository

It is not difficult to add Ubuntuzilla, but if you are using the old version of ubuntuzilla script, you should delete it first. Otherwise,/Usr/binThe old version of the script will still be used after installation.

Run the following command to remove the Ubuntuzilla script of the old version:

$ Sudo ubuntuzilla. py-a remove-p

First, we strongly recommend that you back up your personal Firefox/Thunderbird/Seamonkey files. It is stored in your home directory. Firefox and Seamonkey files are stored in. MozillaDirectory. The personal files of Thunderbird are stored in. ThunderbirdOr. Mozilla-thunderbirdDirectory.

Open with any editor/Etc/apt/sources. listFile.

$ Sudo nano/etc/apt/sources. list

Add the following line in it:

Save and exit the file.

Use the following command to add the following software package signature public key to the apt keyring:

$ Sudo apt-key adv -- recv-keys -- keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com C1289A29

Run the following command to update the source file table:

$ Sudo apt-get update

Now you can install the Mozilla software from Ubuntuzilla.

Install Mozilla Firefox:

$ Sudo apt-get install firefox-mozilla-build

Install Mozilla Thunderbird:

These commands can remove software packages:
