Actually, you can overwrite an old installation, or create a parallel
installation, but upgrades are questionable. Generally, it appears that
the tar.gz bundles from Mozilla are complete packages. If you do a
parallel install, then you can import old boomarks, etc., which is often
a safer way to install.

Downloading Firefoc 0.9 (I am presently using 0.8).
I know that with an RPM I can use the -U to tell the
RPM to Update the existing program.
What happens when I use the *tar.gz file of firefox?
Will it automatically simpley UPGRADE? Or Overwrite
existing? Or create a parallell install?
How do I handle such a situation?
Thanks
