There are RPMs that claim to be compatible with the Fedora project on

/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/yum/SeaMonkey/releases/1.5/redhat/fedora-test3

Does anyone know anything about them?  Do they have the appropriate
Fedora patches, or do they need to be patched to bring them into
conformance with Fedora standards (such as these are).  Are they up to
date? -- They are all pretty old, all dated 16-Oct-2003.

Many Thanks -- Jonathan Ryshpan <jonrysh@xxxxxxxxxxx>

I have not installed 1.5 yet because of a dependency issue with Epiphany which needs Mozilla 1.4.1. But if you wanted to try installing it via yum, you could add the following to your yum.conf (thanks to some #fedora folks on irc who told me about this!):


#[mozilla-seamonkey]
name=Mozilla SeaMonkey Release
baseurl=http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/yum/SeaMonkey/releases/current/redhat/0.95

then simply do "yum update mozilla" as root.

I have done that part, but backed out when yum told me of the dependency issue, since I have a couple of family members who prefer Epiphany's simplicity and UI.
