When will the latest release of Firefox be available in Software Updater?

I have been waiting to use Firefox 47.0.1 in an Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS VM, but the Software Updater keeps assuring me that the 47.0 I have is up to date.

I know that 47.0.1 was released on 06/28/2016. How long does it usually take for new updates to make it into Software Updater?

I'm aware I an download and install the latest directly from Mozilla, but I wonder what will happen to future updates if I do that.

Thanks
