Install mozilla
I currently have mozilla 0.9.9 running. I wish to upgrade to the latest version of 1.2 mozilla. My mozilla 0.9.9 come with R.H 7.3 with updates from update agent.
how do i go about installing the latest version of mozilla. I read the readme of mozilla 1.2 It recommend me to uninstall the older version of mozilla before installation. I tried uninstall mozilla 0.9.9 with K package manager, but it crash a couple of times. which one RPM should I uninstall first? mozilla mail? mozilla ? or whatever...? |
Try to remove the RPM manually from command line, and if that does not work, you could always try to install the new version as an upgrade using the -U switch.

can you gimme somre details on how to remove using the command line? what the full command for upgrading? sorry...but I only juz started using linux
|
To uninstall a rpm from a command line type rpm -e filename.rpm remember linux is case sensitive. For upgrading you'll need to read the install instrustions from the Mozilla web site. Follow them exactly!
|
well...i used K Package Manager to force remove everything that is related to mozilla, by disabling check dependencies. and install mozilla with the version that come with a installer. by default, mozilla install itself to /usr/local/mozilla

I always install Mozilla/office suites on seperate locations. Never had a problem. Just create an icon on the desktop for user.
