At the time you install it, it downloads the latest nightly build of Firefox.&lt;p&gt;This doesn&amp;#x27;t sound so good, and is the opposite of what I think people have come to expect.  It&amp;#x27;s seems like the most straightforward solution is to hardcode a specific version of the runtime into the package, so that installing qbrt XX.0.0 gets you the runtime that corresponds to Firefox version XX.</text></comment>

Genuinely curious about the benefit.&lt;p&gt;Is Gecko better than Chromium in certain cases?</text></comment>
