(*) It's not a real install; you expand the .bz2 file into a directory, then run the firefox binary from there, probably with links so the executable will be in your PATH.
I also remove the officially installed firefox so there aren't two versions around.
i don't see any .bz2 files there. all i see for version 69 is individual files.
