I think I understand the heart of the issue though.

Here is the requirements section from Firefox 3.0.6:

<rpm:entry name="xulrunner" flags="GE" epoch="0" ver="1.9.0.6" rel="1"/>

Because it is GE and not EQ yum determines the requirement and says, I can provide xulrunner 1.9.0.7 because it is the
latest and it meets the requirement of >= 1.9.0.6. Although it should probably be an EQ because the Firefox 3.0.6 with
xulrunner 1.9.0.7 does not work, this appears to fall on Red Hat. However, I do think update-minimal should realize that
the advisory I'm trying to install looks for a specific version of xulrunner (1.9.0.6 in this case) and check to see if
that version meets the requirement (which it does) and to see if that package is available in the repository (which it
is) and install that version, not the latest.


And if the requirements said EQ then it would have done that - but the assumption yum (and others) use is that newer is better, provided all the deps are met.

Please report the requirement problem  as a bug to rhel.
