I wrote a howto at fedoraforum that lays out the steps to get 32-bit
Firefox installed with Flash and Sun Java in x86_64
As additional data points relating to this topic, there are actually two
howtos at fedoraforum that provide instructions for installing
firefox.i386 in Fedora x86_64: one howto for FC4 and one for FC5.
FC4: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=81591
FC5: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=102143
The FC4 howto has been accessed 15,023 times as of this writing, and the
FC5 howto has been accessed 9,608 times. Even if just 10% of users
accessing those threads were x86_64 users really intent upon installing
32-bit Firefox along with Flash and Sun Java plugins, we're talking
about hundreds of end users who'd benefit from having firefox.i386 in
the x86_64 repo(s).
If the decision is made to leave ff.i386 in x86_64 permanently, I'd
appreciate it if you'd post the decision here when it's made. A lot of
folks will be happy to hear the news.
Thanks,
Jay
