Installation

From package manager

Alpine Linux (postmarketOS):

apk add mobile-config-firefox
apk add mobile-config-firefox-librewolf  # (only needed for librewolf)

Arch Linux (DanctNIX, AUR)

yay -S mobile-config-firefox

Debian (Mobian):

apt install firefox-esr-mobile-config

Manual install

If you want to install this config manually, e.g. to see if a bug is still present in the current state of the project, or to test your changes, clone the repository (or download it).

From inside the mobile-config-firefox folder run:

sudo make FIREFOX_DIR=/usr/lib/firefox-esr install

for Firefox ESR. For other variants of Firefox, change the part after FIREFOX_DIR= as follows:

  • Release: /usr/lib/firefox (or plain sudo make install, as it’s the default value if none is set)

  • Beta: /usr/lib/firefox-beta

  • Nightly: /usr/lib/firefox-nightly

  • Librewolf: /usr/lib/librewolf

Note that Firefox ESR and Release are the only officially supported variants by mobile-config-firefox. Other variants might not fully work.

Testing with Beta and Nightly is possible via a Debian distrobox using Mozilla’s repo. The easiest way to add the mozilla repo is via extrepo.

Flatpak installs are currently unsupported, help welcome!
