I ask 'cause I had release candidate 2 from Cooker on for a while and found it nice in some respects but buggier than the .9.8 that comes with MDK 8.2 in others. I just used the software manager to uninstall it and re-install .9.8 with no trouble.
I did, however, also install RC3 from mozilla.org (the installer download) and ran it for a while. It fixed a few of the things that bugged me about RC2 but seems to have developed a few other bugs of it's own. I found the bugs that were obvious to me had already been reported so I just deleted the directory it was in and will wait for the full release. Again, no trouble since the second method (install from the tar file with the installer download from Mozilla) installs in it's own directory. Doesn't affect .9.8 at all. Any of the methods will stuff Galeon though because of unsatisfied dependencies.
