Firefox 2.0 installation

raylhm · 02-24-2007, 12:39 PM

I am trying to install Firefox 2.0 and I keep running in to this error:/home/ray/MozillaFirefox-2.0.0.2-6.1.i586.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
MozillaFirefox = 1.5.0.9 is needed by (installed) MozillaFirefox-transltions-1.5.0.9-0.2.i586

Firefox 1.5.0.9 is installed.

What can I do to fix this?

Better still, he should get the MozillaFirefox-translations for version 2.x and install it at the same time as the MozillaFirefox 2.x rpm.

wasn't all that stuff brought inside for the 2.0?

How about getting the tar.gz of Firefox 2, then untar to say /opt, remove the firefox binary in /usr/bin and replace with a symlink to your new copy in /opt .

openSUSE still splits the two, so you have to install MozillaFirefox and MozillaFirefox-translations.

Thanks for all the replies. Removing Mozilla Translations 1.5.0.9 did it. Thanks again.

if you install it with tarball, it is like a stand alone application, no dependencies problem will occur.
