nikos,
>> ... is it safe to download and upgrade via rpm a later version than
1.2.1 without break anything? ... <<
On my RH9 test box (and RH 8.0 for that matter) I downloaded:
* the mozilla-1.3-0_rh8_xft RPM file set (11 files) from mozilla.org
using ftp.
* and the matching galeon-1.2.9-1_8.x.i386.rpm file from
ftp://latinhouse.metalab.unc.edu/pub/sourceforge/galeon
These were installed with the command:
rpm -Fvh galeon-1.2.9-1_8.x.i386.rpm mozilla-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm
mozilla-chat-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm mozilla-devel-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm
mozilla-dom-inspector-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm
mozilla-js-debugger-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm
mozilla-mail-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm mozilla-nspr-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm
mozilla-nspr-devel-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm
mozilla-nss-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm
mozilla-nss-devel-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm mozilla-psm-1.3-0_rh8_xft.i386.rpm
It's not exactly bleeding edge... but it seems stable... and it has the
spam controls in e-mail.
best,
Cliff Kent
