Here's the situation: These libs are installed: $ rpm -qa '*compat-libstdc++*' compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-61:(none)-i386 compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-61:(none)-x86_64 compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138:(none)-i386 The package compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138:(none)-i386 doesn't seem to be available in any repository, so it's probably not needed, especially since I am running the i386 version of firefox.
