Linux Pale Moon is not in the Mint repository. Since it isn't in the Mint repository, linux Pale Moon cannot be updated through the Synaptic Package Manger or through the Update Manager. Linux Pale Moon has to be manually installed by you via the tarball to be listed in the Mint Menu under Internet.
If you don't want to install linux Pale Moon in Mint, you can use it by running it's executable file like I do. If you use this method, there will be no listing in the Mint menu under Internet. You have to create the launcher icon for Pale Moon from the image file which is found in the extracted Pale Moon folder. Once the Pale Moon launcher icon is created, you can move it to where you want on the Mint Panel (taskbar).
BTW, I don't think Pusser's version of linux Pale Moon for Ubuntu will work in Mint. If you want to see what my linux Pale Moon looks like when it is "not" installed in Mint, go to the page in the link below and find my username showing what my linux Pale Moon looks like. When on that page, start from the bottom of the page and work up since I've got a few posts on that page.
