You can install both versions on your machine, but it's preferable to use 2 different profiles with each version to avoid conflict.

I also get asked to update 51.0a2 to 51.0a2.

The version info doesn't change until after the cycle completes so every update on nightly, aurora, etc. will be the same version until the next cycle. There are changes in the version you update to... the version number just doesn't change.

Questions about where to get versions should not be filed as a bug. In the future please ask in the support forums or search on the internet.

Loic, this is obviously not an application update bug... *sigh*
