I'm trying to work out some of the dependency issues (figure I should
start small).

When I try to install mozilla this is what I get:

[root at localhost yum]# yum -y install mozilla

Package mozilla needs mozilla-nspr = 37:1.7.3-2.ydl.1, this is not available.
Package mozilla needs mozilla-nss = 37:1.7.3-2.ydl.1, this is not available.

It seems odd that packages would be unavailable (I'm wondering if
FreshRPMs shouldn't be in there).

Eric.
