I don't believe that we're going to package the individual milestone releases of Firefox 3.6. You can try Firefox 3.6 from the Mozilla Team Daily PPA:

While we won't package the early alphas, it doesn't hurt to have a placeholder bug for packaging Firefox 3.6 when the time comes.

I think Firefox 3.6 should be in Lucid since it's already in RC stage. It should be out fairly soon. I think it should be in Alpha 3 or by Beta 1.

I've nominated it for Lucid if it gets finalized soon. I think there should be enough time if it gets finalized to be added into Lucid, barring any unforseen delays.

  * Target the 'default' branch instead of tip

    - update debian/control
  * until we move searchplugins to a separate package provided only by the current default
    firefox, we need to make firefox-3.6 replace all the older firefox binary packages:
    firefox-3.5, firefox-3.2, firefox-3.1, firefox-3.0
    - update debian/control
  * implement MIN_SYS_DEPS approach that does not use system xulrunner
    and only a minimal set of system dependencies.
    + drop patches not required anymore:
      - delete debian/patches/dont_depend_on_nspr_sources.patch
      - update ...
