TIA Bob Where did you find mozilla 1.3 for Mandrake 9.0? I cannot find it in any of the usual sources. I suspect you have got yourself mozilla-1.3 for 9.1 in which case there will be many dependencies which will be difficult for you to resolve. The simplest way round it is to upgrade to 9.1, or else get the mozilla source and compile it yourself. As for the question do we not quite so newbies chase down dependencies one at a time? The answer is no. We (or at least I) define a number of urpmi sources such as Texstar, plf, and Mandrake Club where updated packages appear for various Mandrake releases. The simple command urpmi mozilla would be all that was needed to upgrade to the latest version of mozilla the sources contained as well as all its dependencies.

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.
