rlees LQ Newbie Registered: Mar 2002 Distribution: Mandrake 8.2 Posts: 1 Rep:	I was able to upgrade to mozilla 1.4 with just rpms Mostly you need to get perl and perl-base 5.8.1 rpms plus those libns rpms. This opens up a WORLD of dependency issues. I needed: mozilla-1.4-4mdk.i586.rpm mozilla-mail-1.4-4mdk.i586.rpm mozilla-spellchecker-1.4-4mdk.i586.rpm libnspr4-1.4-4mdk.i586.rpm libnss3-1.4-4mdk.i586.rpm perl-5.8.1-0.RC4.2mdk.i586.rpm perl-base-5.8.1-0.RC4.2mdk.i586.rpm perl-devel-5.8.1-0.RC4.2mdk.i586.rpm vim-enhanced-6.2-9mdk.i586.rpm vim-common-6.2-9mdk.i586.rpm gaim-0.66-2mdk.i586.rpm libgaim-remote0-0.66-2mdk.i586.rpm libgtkspell0-2.0.3-4mdk.i586.rpm libpython2.3-2.3-2mdk.i586.rpm galeon-1.3.7-2mdk.i586.rpm Whew!!! I got them all from ftp://speakeasy.rpmfind.net/linux/ma.../Mandrake/RPMS OR just keep fixing dependencies recursively until the perl and libns rpms go thru. Wish I could figure out how to get urpmi working ) BTW, installing with the mozilla installer works too (I did that 1st) but you don't get anti-aliased fonts. A big thing for me. Cheers all!
