     I installed it on two Devuan-Jessie machines. I installed the Zync 
(or some name like this) extension to switch language ,and the French 
language extension. I'm satisfied with it, but I keep Firefox-ESR as a 
backup. You will understand why below.


     I'm using the package provided on opensuze.


     There was a problem during an upgrade on one of my hosts, 
apparently an xml error in the start page, which rendered it unusable; 
therefore I kept the old version on the other machine. One month later, 
it worked again.


     Two days ago I tried to upgrade it on the other machine and 
experienced the same issue. I purged the package
and was unable to find the package for amd64 anymore, only i386 was 
available. I copied the package from
the first machine and installed it and it works now.


     My conclusion is that the software is satisfactory but the 
maintainance isn't, not knowing if the problem is
upstream or only with the maintainer of the repository I use.

     Don't know if I can.
