	I would if it wasn't such a tangled mess.  I really prefer to keep
things managed by rpm but for mozilla there's -

$ rpm -qa|grep mozilla
mozilla-chat-1.2.1-26
mozilla-nss-1.2.1-26
mozilla-js-debugger-1.2.1-26
mozilla-psm-1.2.1-26
mozilla-dom-inspector-1.2.1-26
mozilla-nspr-1.2.1-26
mozilla-devel-1.2.1-26
mozilla-nss-devel-1.2.1-26
mozilla-1.2.1-26
mozilla-mail-1.2.1-26
mozilla-nspr-devel-1.2.1-26

With all the fsck'ing GNOME dependencies it's a real pain in the @$$. 
Maybe I'll get 1.4 and just run it from my home dir.

	I REALLY wish that packages weren't so complicatedly intertwined in
Linux anymore.  For example, I really like Evolution but to go through
the agony of trying to upgrade it (and all the things it needs and all
the things that break when you do) isn't worth it.

	Anyway, this has veered off topic.
