I salute your expertise with searching :)

It is a python script and I'm not exactly fluent in python, but it should
return is_release_or_beta = True and is_nightly = None

I would expect the milestone to be 65.0.1 (although I only recall
'version' notation when looking at diffs beweeen betas/releases).

Alright guys, after a long night of troubleshooting, I figured it out.

There must have been something wrong with my original script. It installed Firefox Nightly into /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib/firefox respectively. My guess is that it was a problem with my script. Here was the whole process:

- Upgrade to latest node, cbindgen, NSPR, sqlite
- Install Firefox-65.0.2
- Determine that for some reason Firefox Nightly was still being opened
- Run 'update-desktop-database' and find out that it was pulling from /usr/local/* before /usr/* - Read the desktop file and determine that "Exec=firefox" means that it'll pull any firefox that it can find, often times being the first in the search path (which seems to be /usr/local)
- Remove firefox nightly from /usr/local and...
- VOLIA! I have a working Firefox-65.0.2.

Now with this, I uncovered another problem (although I'm comfortably in firefox).

For some reason, xterm installed it's binaries to /usr/local/bin! Can someone else confirm this? I verified that $XORG_CONFIG was present at build-time and even rebuilt it, and found that it still placed binaries in the wrong location.
