68 is sometimes needed as upstream (sigh!) removed some DOM interfaces
that are still in use in the wild (like: to fetch https certificates
from some vendors you will need to run a ff68 to generate the request
and retrieve the certitficate). [but right now I am not sure if I have
an off by one in the versions]

But this is fine, usually the providers (or local admins) will tell you
"use Firefox $X", and then looking for a pkg in www/firefox-$X is
simple. Just do not call it ESR, no matter if it ever has been one.
