This is not necessarily the case. Basically you can update firefox in rpm installs, as well. I did this multiple times, actually I did it anytime I thought the suse supplied updates were late ;-))

Disadvantage: From then on, you are on your own in regards to firefox updates from SUSE , but you said, you prefer to do your updates manually.;-))
Up to now, this worked nicely for me. Should you encounter the problem that you cannot activate firerfox updates, because they are greyed out, it is always an easy option to remove the suse firefox that came with your OS and install the latest+greatest from mozilla.com .
In case SUSE updates are late there is a mozilla repository in the buildservice which has updated packages usually at the same time as mozilla.com. And then you - don't break RPM consistency - don't loose special SUSE integration features Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
