Public bug reported:

This bug is being filed here after discussion at
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/2291/please-create-snap-packages

https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2016/04/21/firefox-default-
browser-for-linux-users-ubuntu-new-snap-format-coming-soon/


>Ubuntu version 16.04 will include the introduction of the snap
infrastructure. With the snap format, we will be able to continually
optimize Firefox on Ubuntu. Like our rapid engineering release cycle,
snap format will allow us to provide Linux users the most up-to-date
features, in particular security patches, even after major Operating
System ship dates.


Snap packages are a new, secure, independent way of distributing software. 
Mozilla has already committed to release snap packages according to its own 
release cycle. Remember snap packages do not conflict with distro installed 
packages (of the same name).
