[CentOS] CentOS 5.11 / Firefox 31 -- totally borked...
OK, I just updated my two CentOS 5 boxes (my laptop and by desktop) and discoved that FF 31 is totally borked -- it seems not to be possible to install either Firebug (either 2.0.4 or 1.12.8) or Firefox 2, the theme reloaded (1.0.8). These two addons are critical to me. So I have snaged the FF 24.8.0 rpms from the CentOS 5 vault and downgraded to this version and blocked further updates of FF. Where is the best place to report this problem? -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services heller at deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services

Add-ons are totally broken on C5/ff31. All of them download, some of them continue to install (without the installation progress bar showing any signs of it), and for most add-ons, nothing happens after that. Sometimes, the add-on will install when the manual installation option is selected and the downloaded /tmp/xxx.xpi file chosen, but most of the time this does not work either. This also prevents updating of add-ons. What does seem to work is to log into a C6 box to install add-ons, no such problems there.
