If you comment out the SeaMonkey section in my posted yum.conf > then you will have the same 1.4.2 of moz but you can still use galeon. Very odd -- the only SeaMonkey section I found, way at the bottom, is already commented out. And I only copied & pasted, not trusting my trifocal eyeballs, arthritic fingers, nor defective command of linux to change anything at all in the file on your website. > b) do a yum remove galeon and then go ahead with yum update mozilla > getting mozilla in all its 1.7.3 goodness <grin>.

I note that your sample has Dag's site, commented out, under Alternate Repositories. Does that mean, if I install an rpm from him for galeon (which may be what I have, for all I know; memory like a sieve ...), that I won't be able to do updates on it even if somebody finds a security flaw? I do my mail with pine, and usenet with Pan, and (blessed retirement!) no calendaring at all, at all. So I want the leanest browser-only software I can find. (I tried epiphany, and couldn't live with its dictatorial bookmarking.) Even Firefox seems dead slow at present .... Many thanks! -- Beartooth Autodidact, curmudgeonly codger learning linux Who never touches mozilla if he can possibly help it.
