An unofficial RPM package of Firefox ESR designed for Fedora. This repo was based on the original RPM packaging system created by the4runner for the Firefox Developer Edition.
This is just an RPM packaging for the said software and does not include any licenses of its own. The only additional file included is the .desktop file written based on the original executable from the Firefox Release Channel (default).
Firefox ESR releases are maintained for more than a year, with point releases that coincide with regular Firefox releases. These point releases contain security upgrades.
The ESR version will also have a three cycle (at least 12 weeks) overlap between the time of a new release and the end-of-life of the previous release to permit testing and certification before you deploy the new version to your organization.
We rely on Firefox ESR users to provide feedback for each new ESR release. During the first two cycles, please report any bugs such as web compatibility regressions and stability issues.
Maintenance of each ESR through point releases is limited to high-risk/high-impact security vulnerabilities, and in rare cases may also include off-schedule releases that address live security vulnerabilities. Backports of any functional enhancements and/or stability fixes are not in scope.
