I take that to mean that FireFox *isn't* part of YDL 4???! I figured
it wasn't installing b/c I'd done an upgrade-in-place from 3.0.1 to
4.0 (I wanted to confirm it wasn't me that had mucked things up...
like I've mucked up KDE and some of its libraries... can't launch most
KDE apps in GNOME and kdeinit doesn't want to work, period ;-).

The version at that link is relatively old (compared to what I'm
running in that other Linux). Would it be possible to take a binary
and use it in YDL 4 from that distro that dare not be named, or is
there too much of a difference b/t Debian and FC for that to happen
(too many dependencies in different places & different versions)?

Eric.
