Rémi Collet has made a backport of Firefox 2 to FC4, FC5 and FC6: http://remi.collet.free.fr/index.php?2006/10/25/225-firefox-20-1 (His repository is only for i386, so if you're on another architecture, you'll have to rebuild from the SRPMs: http://remi.collet.free.fr/rpms/SRPMS/ .) These packages replace the Firefox 1.5 (or 1.0 for FC4) packages. Thus, on FC6, you'll also need the rebuilt reverse dependencies (packages depending on Firefox) if you use any of them or rebuild them yourself from the Fedora SRPMs, because packages using Firefox as their Gecko runtime engine only work with the version of Firefox they were built against. (On FC4 and FC5, these packages are built against Mozilla 1.7, so updating Firefox doesn't require rebuilds there.) Kevin Kofler
