Downloaded browser - no installer WTF?
What button do I push to get a new FireFox browser to install under an older Ubuntu os?

firefox-25.0.tar.bz2 sits on my desktop iconed as an unpacked box.
and sits, and sits.....

So I read the first half of 20 different "help" files, yadha yadha yadha, when I already know that all it should take is clicking a little button called "Install" (or the likes). They are hiding it on me for shits & giggles right?

~~Mozilla support......

Oh yeah, found some very helpfull hints there.

If I sacrafice three chickens and a dog on the full of the harvest moon..... it should start maybe.

What ever happened to firefux just puts a goddamned launch icon on the desktop when it unpacks?

Fuck it. I'll just load Windows and use a real browser instead.
