Geckodriver must be in the new official APT repository of Mozilla : https://packages.mozilla.org/apt

Why ?
It's pretty annoying. Without that, now must to :

  • Use a non official APT repository like that includes both, to keep testing VM updated
  • Installing by manually the geckodriver (ie, downloading the tgz file, decompres, etc)

So, on my case, with a computer running Ubuntu and using Firefox without snap, I was using a non official APT repository ( https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/mozillateam/ppa/ubuntu/ ) to have Firefox and geckodriver. When I try the new official APT repository, I find that installing firefox package from it, removes the firefox-geckodriver package that I have from the not official APT repository. So I must fallback again to the not official APT repository.

Thank you for the suggestion. I filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1876704 to get this sorted out.
