The latest security bugs in FF 1.5.x have been applied already, check the changelog... A version upgrade wont be done now.
Ciao, Marcus
I don't want to discuss this thing, but maybe someone can explain to me (it's just because I'm interested in the reasons for this method), why distributors choose to manually patch applications, instead of applying minor version updates from upstream? Manually applied patches can't be verified by the user, so as in the Qt 4.1.0 vs. 4.1.2 issue, I would think "SUSE doesn't even bugfix stability issues" even if the patches maybe have been applied manually without increasing the version number..
