It works fine if you have the Firefox RPM. Arca Noae paid for the RPM 
and then decided it wasn't stable enough to release so only a few of us 
have access to it.
I don't have access to the RPM recipe or I might consider trying to 
release RPM builds of all the apps though I'm not really motivated to do so.
Note that a fresh install of Arca Noae only needs a couple of packages 
installed to support FF 45.9, hunspell (not needed for SM or TB), libvpx 
and optionally the FFmpeg libs
