/usr/local is the default PREFIX for user installed (compiled etc)
programs. /usr/ is the PREFIX usually used by distros when their own
package managers are installing programs. This is meant to keep things
from interfering with eachother but it can be pretty annoying to. It's
usually best to stick with packages distributed especially for your
platform because they will be setup right for your system. I can't
really help with this situation because I don't have any experience with
RH9 but I can recommend a search engine called Google
(http://www.google.com) to you :-P. Seriously though, google for
something like "Redhat Linux 9 Mozilla 1.4 RPM" and you'll probably find
a package. There's also RPMfind.net that has a database and mirror of
nearly every major rpm in existence.

Hi all:

I represent the extreme newbie subgroup in PLUG. I hope the rest of you
don't mind too much. If I am too far off-topic, please reply off-list.

I installed RedHat9. The Mozilla version is 1.2. I tried to install a
current release of Mozilla, but now I seem to have Mozilla in many
places: in /usr/bin, in /usr/lib, oin 'usrlocal... One article I read
seems to expect Mozilla to be in /uselocal/lib...

I can only execute the updated version if I log in as root. It's a
mess.

I desire to uninstall? remove? all these various Mozilla files, and do
a clean reinstall -- one copy of Mozilla in one place. One copy usable
by both root and me.

In good old WinXP, "the place" was under Program Files. That's where
the executables were. Where is "the right place in this case?

Can someone guide me through the cleanup / reinstall process?? Many
thanks --

Craig
