RE: problem removing Mozilla 1.4 which came with FC1

Well, I guess I'll have to upgrade to Mozilla 1.6. The reason for removing it is that some of the plugins goes directly into /usr/lib/Mozilla/plugins directory instead of going to /usr/local/Netscape/plugins (I've installed netscape 7.1).

Thanks to all the replies, it certainly helped me to get familiar with FC1.

Thanks in advance for your comment/suggestion

>From the dependencies that are listed, it looks as if you won't be able to
erase the Mozilla RPMs without losing the functionality of gaim or
OpenOffice. If you don't care about either of those, then you should do


rpm -qa | grep gaim
rpm -qa | grep openoffice
Rpm -qa | grep mozilla

Then add those resulting packages (there may be more dependencies) to the
list you have for your rpm -e command.

If you are removing Mozilla 1.4 in order to upgrade to Mozilla 1.6, just get
the RPMs for Mozilla 1.6 and do an rpm -Uvh to upgrade to 1.6.


If you just want to get rid of Mozilla altogether, you'll have to dedicate a
good amount of time to discover all the dependencies and then rpm -e them
all. You could probably find a nifty shell script somewhere in the RedHat
list archives that would do all that for ya...
