change firefox after upgrade to dapper from breezy

, , ,

When I install firefox manually to breezy ubuntu is version 1.5.0.1. But after i upgraded to dapper, firefox tag with dapper is more latest. I realized that after upgrade to dapper, firefox still remains 1.5.0.1, actually the real case is new firefox is been install with different name. For my case it is

/usr/bin/mozilla-firefox.ubuntu


And I also realized that /usr/bin/firefox is just a symlink to /opt/firefox, which I manually install last time. To get the latest firefox, the steps are easy.

Maintain the old link to my manually installed firefox.
sudo mv /usr/bin/{firefox,firefox.old}


Create a symlink to link a new firefox
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/{mozilla-firefox.ubuntu,firefox}


Okay, double click the firefox and guess what, my bookmark is still remain to same, version changed., ap
