With the inclusion of Firefox 3 in f9, how easy would it be to include RPMs for older versions of firefox. I do web development and while I can't wait to be able to use ff3 for personal browsing, I still need to be able to test with ff2 (and ff1.x would be nice too). This is something that has always frustrated me about Windows. Recently, I was offered IE7 as and update. This is great, as I need to be able to test this browser, but now I have no ie6 to test with. Arghh. Can we do better, by offering installs of older browsers that can be run in parallel to make it easier to test browser based development?
If you have parallel installs of Firefox, doesn't it try to use the same .mozilla/firefox directory and things go horribly wrong?
As a web developer you might be better off downloading upstream's binary tarballs and putting them in the homedir of a different non-root user so the different versions don't step on each other.
