Firefox could not install this item because "install.rdf" (provided by the item) is not well formed or does not exist. Please contact the author about this problem.
How to reproduce this message :-
- download and upgrade
firefox-1.5.0.2-2.1.c4.centos.i386.rpm from the testing repo
- erase the previous firefox 1.5.0.1 from centosplus
and install the new one. It still gives this error message.
