@herbarium I added the policies.json to disable automatic updates.

Unlike normal build of Firefox from repositories of Linux distributions, this one comes with a built-in updater, which can only be disabled with policies.json. Since Firefox doesn't have root write access, I'm assuming that it can't update itself, but IMO it's better to disable it anyway, like they did in Gentoo:

{
  "policies": {
    "DisableAppUpdate": true
  }
}

Can you please put this file into /opt/firefox-esr/distribution/? Thanks in advance.

This is absurd. Installing -bin is building from source indeed. That needs to be fixed.
