Public bug reported:

Hi,

I am encountering a severe issue on several Ubuntu 18.04.2 machines
where I have replaced Firefox by Firefox ESR through "Ubuntu Software
Center" by selecting esr/stable channel as described in
https://ubuntu.com/blog/firefox-esr-60-on-ubuntu

After being installed, Firefox ESR is working as expected but it is
never updated.

I mean Firefox ESR is detecting that a new version is available when starting.
Even "Ubuntu Software Center" shows a newer version exists.

But when I run either 
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

or "Software Updater",

Ubuntu is never updating the Firefox ESR.
I have reproduced this on 3 different machines running Ubuntu 18.04.2.

I am not sure if it is the right place to submit this problem report.
Are you aware of this issue ?

Thanks

Kind regards
