      I am also experiencing the same issue as the other two gentlemen. I have added the PPA but in my package manager the standard version of mozilla (51.0.1) is appearing instead of aurora (53.0.1)

      I tried installing the developer edition of firefox using the commands listed in this article, but it only installed the standard version of firefox. I tried purging the standard edition then re-running these commands, but again, it installed the standard edition.

      What might I be doing wrong?
