Subject: [suse-sles-e] Firefox in SLES 9

Hello everyone. I have what I believe to be a fairly simple question
for the list. What's the best way to install/update Firefox in SLES 9?
I managed to install it successfully (I think); however, I'm interested
in knowing if there's a better/smarter/more efficient way. I'd also be
interested in knowing how to best update from 2.0.0.6 to 2.0.0.7, also
in SLES 9, in preparation for future updates. Perhaps someone out there
can check my work? Many thanks.

 

1) wget
http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.6/lin
ux-i686/en-US/firefox-2.0.0.6.tar.gz

2) tar xzf firefox-2.0.0.6.tar.gz

3) mv firefox /opt (for public availability)
