Silly thought: if you *have* that package installed, and want to
upgrade
it... what repo does rpm -qi internet-browser tell you it's from.
See my previous reply -- it DOES not show up in an rpm query. I am
not using konqueror. I will try to track this down further. It MUST
be an alias that's set up in gnome.
I don't suppose there's any chance that it could be the konqueror
browswer?
Surely this isn't anything complicated?
# yum groupinfo internet-browser
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security, versionlock
Setting up Group Process
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

HA! I did do "yum info internet-browser" but did not use the groupinfo
option.
So thanks. Mystery solved!
