 Here I go coloring outside the lines again. I tried installing Firefox in
 Joyride today. Install fails.

 Try to install:


 {{{
 bash-3.2# yum install firefox
 Setting up Install Process

 yum instaError: Missing Dependency: gecko-libs = 1.9.0.1 is needed by
 package firefox-3.0.1-1.fc9.i386 (olpc_development)

 }}}

 Fails, so lets see about gecko-libs:
 {{{
 bash-3.2# yum install gecko-libs
 Setting up Install Process
 Parsing package install arguments
 Package xulrunner-1.9-1.olpc3.3.i386 already installed and latest version
 Nothing to do
 }}}

 It thinks our newer xul-runner fills the bill.

 This worked properly a couple of days ago. rpm rot.
