I'm running openSUSE 11.3 on my desktop. A message said I need to upgrade Firefox. I clicked on upgrade and it downloaded a file named "firefox-6.0.2.tar.bz2"

I've extracted the tar file, but can't find a script file to upgrade Firefox. I don't want to mess up the Firefox that's running, so I don't want to blindly run something I'm not sure what it's going to do. I can't find instructions on how to manually upgrade Firefox, and it won't upgrade automatically. What's my next step? Can I get some help?

You currently have the Firefox version that is branded by SUSE and that version would have to be updated via the repositories of that installation.


You can copy the contents of the tar.bz2 archive to another folder and create a new launcher to start the firefox script in that folder to run that Firefox version with that profile by appending -P "profile_name" to the command field.

You need to create a new profile if you still want to use the Firefox 3.6.x version

You're welcome.

Keep an eye on the lifetime of your current OpenSUSE version:
