This is a big lag in terms of security. When I open Firefox home page, I get a big yellow warning that I am out of date. I can download 3.6.3 from Mozilla but this is a tar archive, not a package, so it cannot be installed properly Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make sure openSUSE is up to date. 2. Tell Firefox to navigate to Firefox home page [1] 3. Examine the final URL. [1] http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ Actual Results: 3. Mozilla server detects that Firefox is out of date and displays an urgent update notice to upgrade to release 3.6.3 [2] [2] http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/upgrade.html Expected Results: 3. My Firefox should be up to date! !! !!!!!
