firefox bug fix and enhancement update

An updated firefox package that fixes various bugs and adds enhancements
is now available.

Mozilla Firefox is an open source Web browser.

Important: this updated package upgrades Firefox to version 3, and is not
fully backwards compatible with all JavaScript and Firefox plug-ins.

This updated package fixes the following bugs:

* attempting to print a page from Firefox may have caused a segmentation
fault.

* in certain situations, starting Firefox for the first time displayed a
Mozilla page that warned users to upgrade, rather than the default Red Hat
Enterprise Linux page.

* printing failed if the X server was run with a 16-bit color depth.

* the Mozilla AutoConfig was broken. Mozilla AutoConfig works as expected
in this updated package.

As well, this updated package adds the following enhancement:

* support for SVG was not enabled in Firefox 1.5 as shipped with Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 4. Support for SVG is enabled in this updated package.

This list is not exhaustive. For further details, refer to the Firefox 3
release notes -- mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.0/releasenotes -- as well as

Users of firefox are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves these issues and adds these enhancements.

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
