Can't update mozilla firefox

[caf4926]

What does this give:

rpm -q MozillaFirefox

rpm -q MozillaFirefox

gives:

MozillaFirefox-3.0.14-0.1.2

Why don't you do this through Yast. In the software manager, filter by repositories, then select the Mozilla repo. Look at the installed packages and choose Firefox. You will then an option to upgrade to FF 3.5.

Can you tell us what happens? Any messages you see would be helpful.

I see the same screen, as if I were installing or upgrading software- I choose to upgrade firefox program, the yast update screen begins to displays the updates, but I end with the same version:

3.0.14

If I search by repository and choose firefox, is the same: Yast update screen appears and then: still the same version.

Now, I wish to begin from zero. Let's think I am in the 3.0.14 version of firefox (as I am now) and wish to upgrade.

What steps do I have to do from the very beginning to do that ?


I appreciate you patience very much!!

Try giving the Mozilla repo a higher priority say: 20
Then: Yast - Software Management - Filter by repo, select FFox
From the top menu 'Package' select Update all in this list Unconditionally
