As a TW user I'm already dying to upgrade to 55, having already ensured that my extensions are compatible.
Yeah, so how did you do that? I'd have an older machine for testing, maybe it's less of a problem than I think. I just can't test FF55 anywhere else since I need Java on those machines.
This is Tumbleweed, not Leap;
That doesn't explain anything, nor should it make one choice more or less likely than the other w.r.t. how that particular transistion is handled for FireFox. I am using Tumbleweed for a lot longer than Leap existed even as a name and I've lived through a number of re-definitions of what exactly "Tumbleweed" is supposed to be.
I respectfully suggest that if you want to keep an older version of a package, you prevent its upgrades yourself via Yast.
I can do that, but it won't get me the ESR updates. There's probably a solution for that also, but the less fiddly, the better.
(This probably sounds snarkier than is intended; I just want the release team to know there are those of us patiently waiting for a package whose official stable release is already a month old)
It sounded exactly as snarky as you wanted it to, so just own it. Anyway, there was discussion of having both ESR and 55+ as mutually exclusive packages in TW at least for some time to allow folks to switch on their own schedule (within reason) and I still think that was the better idea.
