Install Firefox 3.6 on Fedora (12)
Mar 15th
Firefox 3.6 is not available in the repos yet (15-03/-10) beacuse its probably not ready for release to the Fedora community. But if you want to give it a try you can grab it from the rawhide repo.
To check if firefox is avaliable run
yum --enablerepo=rawhide list firefox
You should get something like:
Installed Packages firefox.i686 3.5.8-1.fc12 @updates Available Packages firefox.i686 3.6.1-2.fc14 rawhide
To install firefox run the following
yum --enablerepo=rawhide install firefox
