Some where about 6 weeks back I wound up with both, and I don't seem to be able to make the -esr version work as default, it runs the 47.0.1 version anyway.  But wheezy is stuck on the older version.  And I don't care which is running, 5 minutes on the nbcnews.com site and I have to go find the screen htop is running on to kill it.
