The Debian package "libgtk-3-common" solved the problem of getting:

ver=46.0; wget "https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-$ver-SSL&os=linux" -O firefox-$ver.tar.bz2

Working.

One last question, what is the purpose of


firefox/gtk2/libmozgtk.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, BuildID[sha1]=2f249145f489edc00875dfd18743b6ce7987ea85, stripped

firefox/gtk2/libmozgtk.so is needed for running plugins that links to GTK+-2 (e. g. flash).
