It does NPT show up either through the yum repos or rpm. Is it some kind of system alias? It's 128.9 MB. Yesterday, when I was having so much trouble with the latest FF 52, I uninstalled internet-browser thing which also uninstalled FF 52. OK, all good. I cleared my yum cache, then re-installed FF 45. This item came back through gpk-application. Rather confused at this point.

I am not using konqueror. I will try to track this down further. It MUST be an alias that's set up in gnome.> > I don't suppose there's any chance that it could be the konqueror browswer? > > mark > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos >-- ------------------------------------------ MzK "Since each of us is blessed with only one life, why not live it with a cat?" -- Robert Stearns
