Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how to uninstall mozilla 0.9.9 to make way for the newer
version of it. I searched through the net and most of the places I got the
answer `delete the directory in which you installed mozilla`. The mozilla
that I am using came installed in the redhat distribution. I am not sure
which directories to delete. I am using redhat 7.3

I tried installing the newer mozilla rpm using the -U option. But it came
back with the following errors

rpm -Uvh mozilla-1.0.2-2.7.3.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
       mozilla-nspr = 1.0.2-2.7.3 is needed by mozilla-1.0.2-2.7.3
       mozilla = 0.9.9 is needed by galeon-1.2.0-7
       mozilla = 0.9.9-12.7.3 is needed by mozilla-chat-0.9.9-12.7.3
       mozilla = 0.9.9-12.7.3 is needed by mozilla-devel-0.9.9-12.7.3

       mozilla = 0.9.9-12.7.3 is needed by mozilla-psm-0.9.9-12.7.3


Can anyone help me suggest how it is to be done or point me to a documentation that explains.

I would much appreciate your responses,

Thanks,
Rahul.




I suggest that you store the new version files alone in a separate directory, then rpm -Uvh *.rpmù
It should do the job.....


No disinstallation required
