hi,
i need to get rid of the mozilla on my RH 9 with 2.6.2 kernel, and recompile a customized version of mozilla, how do i do that...
also I downloaded the newer xfree86 then do i need to remove the old one first?
thanks
Remove mozilla using the command: rpm -e mozilla
wich will remove mozilla. You may have to remove morepackets along with the main packet mozilla.
To install your newly downlaoded XFree86 you do not have to remove your current version. The use of -U in the rpm command will do an upgrade. rpm -Uvh <packet names>
