#1. To: buckeroo, stuck at ESR 58 (#0)

* Bug 25554: Bump mingw-w64 version for ESR 60

@ Firefox 58.0.2 ESR now. Probably have to hack into a new repository and do a major system upgrade to get to 60.

I'm probably a version or two behind the current stable (oldstable repository). Haven't checked backports yet though. Not too eager to get the latest bugs.

What OS are you running?

I'm using Firefox Quantum 61.0.1 (64 bit) on Linux Mint 19.
