This cookbook provides a resource (firefox_install) for installing firefox via package manager or downloading the binary directory from Mozilla. The resource allows specifying the version, language, and the desired action (install vs. upgrade) to perform during the install. The cookbook also ships with a default recipe that utilizes the resource in order to provide backwards compatibility with the previous cookbook releases.
