CentOS uses the yum dependency solver for doing updates and not the RHN (normal) up2date mechanism. That is functionality built into up2date. Due to this difference, there is a problem with the Seamonkey upgrade to replace Mozilla using up2date on CentOS-4, because it does not see Seamonkey as obsoleting Mozilla. (This is a problem with the yum depsolver that is included in up2date). Due to this problem, to upgrade from Mozilla to Seamonkey use this command from the command line instead of up2date: yum upgrade seamonkey ------------------ Yum is the official upgrade tool for CentOS. If you are currently using up2date, you should consider switching to yum as this is not the first issue that up2date has had when doing "obsoletes" type updates.
