Hi,
I'm trying to make Firefox 3 work in CentOS 4.
So far I was able to do it by installing the evolution28-* rpms, which have a more recent GTK, Cairo, Pango, etc. With those libs installed and configured, Firefox 3 from mozilla.org works fine.
The only thing is that it doesn't use the "Bluecurve" theme as the other applications do. I was seeing that the evolution28-* packages use themes under /usr/evolution28/share/themes instead of the default /usr/share/themes. I can copy the bluecurve theme there, but the libbluecurve.so that actually themes the widgets is missing. I tried to make it work with one from CentOS 5, but with no luck.
So I'm wondering. Has anyone made those evolution28-* libs work with themes other than the ones included?
Or, going through another easier route: has anyone made Firefox 3 work well on CentOS 4? How?
I know Firefox 3 is supposed to be released on RHEL 4.7 so, is there already any SRPM from RedHat I could use?
well ... it is not just one RPM, it is several. The whole mess is built with different gcc and glibc versions than released now ... so i would recommend waiting for the 4.7 version and not the 4.7 beta version.
