He mentions technical reasons to avoid it, but I can't entirely follow the discussion.
Can anyone explain succinctly why my FC5 can process a dozen updates a week, including kernel updates, but this one is "just too much trouble"?
Don't get me wrong, I don't even use FF--I prefer Seamonkey--but I would like to have the /current/ FF available, if nothing else, for testing purposes and for supporting people who are using FF2.
Does the Mozilla updater work under Linux? Even if it does, I prefer to use an yum/rpm-based install.
