El ppa no "sabe" acerca de Semplice. Si es lo suficientemente similar a Debian sid, intente agregar el ppa manualmente en /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu unstable main 
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu unstable main

Como solución temporal limitada para usar Firefox sin una instalación adecuada:

--siguienteesterespuesta --

  • Descargado elPaquete de Firefox

  • Lo desempaqué. Ahora se puede iniciar Firefox desde allí.

  • Crear un Firefox.desktoparchivo /usr/share/applicationslo agregaría a las entradas del menú.
