Correction : you have upgrade from an old cooker to latest cooker :))
If you want to upgrade mozilla, you MUST upgrade all mozilla packages
(and libnspr4 and libnss3 which are part of mozilla) and
all packages which depend on it (galeon, nautilus-mozilla...)... Latest
nautilus-mozilla pulls latest nautilus which pulls medusa, librsvg1,
gnome-vfs, bonobo, ORBit, fam, which pulls latest xinetd). The only one I
don't know is glibc..

You don't need to upgrade to latest ORBit (if you use GNOME, I suggest
you upgrade, it corrects some bugs..). Same for glibc, I was able to
install mozilla 0.9.2 on my 8.0 home computer without any problem..

Keep in mind this is cooker :))
For people running Mdk 8.0, mozilla 0.9.2 will be in next MandrakeFreq..
