We're still working on it. I think most of the maintainers have a ready mozilla-firefox package now, but none of us is happy with it at this moment.

From the mailinglist (posted by Judd):
Give us time. As Dale will attest, building mozilla-* packages ain't no
fun. :)

There are other problems that JGC and Dale are trying to solve for the
1.0 upgrade, and it's in all our best interests to give them time to do
a good job. I think we've all seen what happens if we try to rush
packages out the door -- they often break and then we get yelled at.

So this is the new us, taking our time and trying to do it right. Live
it, love it. :)

and for the exceptionally brave, ABS is your friend.
