firefox alpha (or beta) on ubuntu 11.04

want to install firefox beta in ubuntu 11.04? as root issue the fol­low­ing in a terminal…

add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-next
apt-get update

if you don’t have firefox installed type the fol­low­ing to install it.

apt-get install firefox

if you already have firefox 4 or 5 installed then simply upgrade to the latest version by doing

apt-get upgrade

running fine, and rather quickly, on my box. all the addons i use are ok. also, this should con­tinue to work for all future ver­sions of firefox…and ubuntu for that mat.

cur­rently (early july 2011)  firefox 6 (aurora) isn’t avail­able through the ppa. try the method detailed here if you like.
