Can't update Mozilla.

I'm currently using:
Mozilla 1.4.1
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031030

I wasn't able to update Mozilla in RH9 this last time. I've updated to Fedora Core 1 2.4.22-1.2174.nptl and Mozilla still won't update. I get this message:

There was a package dependency problem. The message was:

Unresolvable chain of dependencies:
galeon-1.2.7-3 requires mozilla = 35:1.2.1

Please modify your package selections and try again.

I don't know what galeon is or how it relates to Mozilla.

Galeon is a GNOME web browser based on the Mozilla rendering engine Gecko. If you don't use it, you can uninstall Galeon. Use either "yum remove galeon", or "rpm -e galeon".

suppress galeon and upgrade mozilla :-).
do you need two browsers to do the same job?

Thanks,

I guess, I will remove Galeon. Not sure how to suppress it. I've never use it. Didn't even know it was there. I only need one browser.

I say just install apt (http://apt.freshrpms.net/) and then run apt-get upgrade . And everything will be fine

I've used up2date for so long (1.5 yrs) with no problems until this one. But I've hear apt-get is a little better. So maybe I will give it a try.

Fedora uses yum by default. It's pretty similar to apt. There's a couple good articles at www.FedoraNEWS.org .
