This is what I do and it works well, script run as root after
downloading compiled tarball from upstream.
------
#!/bin/bash
TMP=`mktemp -d /tmp/ff.XXXXXXXX`
mv $1 ${TMP}/
pushd ${TMP}
FFOX=`echo $1 |sed -e s?"\.tar\.bz2"?""?`
tar -jxf ${1}
chown -R root:root firefox
mv firefox /usr/local/${FFOX}
popd
pushd /usr/local
rm -f firefox && ln -s ${FFOX} firefox
popd
rm -rf ${TMP}
---------
$1 is the FireFox downloaded from upstream (compiled)
Installing it as root means I am safe from malware over-writing bits of
it, but I do have to manually download.
/usr/local/firefox/firefox then starts it - and old versions are
preserved in case something breaks (I just change which one the
/usr/local/firefox link points to - though I almost never have to revert)
It's not RPM but there are too many advantages to newer FireFox for me
to wait.
