What is recomended when running Linux, to install over the old program
with the new version or to first uninstall and then install the

in /etc/apt/sources.list

there should be one or more lines starting with "rpm". Look for the
line in which after the url there is "base" component. Just add there
at the end of the line "mozilla" component.

After you save the file, execute:
apt-get update

and then:
apt-get install MozillaFirefox

Note, that all this is  from my memory, so some wording may not be
precise, but you'll figure it out.

Naughty top posting :D

apt should take care of all of this for you when you request the software.

Depending on whether it is available with your configuration, something like synaptic (apt-get install synaptic) might be useful and could also be easier to use within a graphical desktop.
