Usually it is.
I was pondering the idea of playing with Gnome Boxes, and decided I
would try to download an iso of
some other distro. When I logged on to Manjaro website, it immediately gave me a
large dialogue box that said
"your browser Version 78 is out of date."
So why could Fedora not tell me that ?
Anyways, I removed version 78 ( the rpm version ) and installed the flatpak version,
which is 80.
Actually Fedora 31 and 32 both have Firefox 80.0.1. It appears that
all Firefox builds for F33 and Rawhide have failed recently, so those
two are still stuck on Firefox 78. Visit
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji and search for "firefox" to see
the build attempts. I don't see anything that immediately jumps out
at me at
https://bugz.fedoraproject.org/firefox, but hopefully the
maintainers are aware of the situation.
A peek at the most recent build log suggests that LTO may be playing a
role in the build failures.
