Definition for Mozilla Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) wrong version

We use patchreporting to check the version for FireFox ESR  

 

But since 78.15.0 Patchreporting is showing a wrong version number for ESR. It is showing the version for FireFox (Non ESR) 

This is quite annoying as we have now a 0% up-2-date score where is should have been 88%.... 

 

Anyone else seeing this problem ?

hmm I just looked again at Mozilla and it turns out they are running 2 versions of ESR... 

78.15.0 and 91.2.0. 

I never get it why Software Developers maintain multiple versions (of the same application)
