I leave this brief manual on how to install Firefox 5 on GNU / Linux CentOS 5 to 64 bits.
Downloaded packages, create a directory named firefox5;
Then move the files to the created;
Code:
firefox-5.0.1.tar.bz2 mv libstdc + +-4.3.0-8.x86_64.rpm firefox5
Entering directory;
It unpacks and decompresses the package firefox;
Code:
tar-firefox-5.0.1.tar.bz2 jxvf
It creates and libstdc Entering directory;
Code:
libstdc mkdir
libstdc cd
Now extract the package libstdc + + and sent to the firefox directory and Leaving directory itself;
Code:
rpm2cpio .. / libstdc + +-4.3.0-8.x86_64.rpm | cpio-IDV
cp usr/lib64/libstdc + +. so.6.0.10 .. / firefox / libstdc + +. so.6
cd ..
Already has a copy of the libstdc + + in the firefox directory, to verify run the following syntax;
Code:
ls firefox / libstdc + +. so.6
You should get out;
Code:
firefox / libstdc + +. so.6
Everything is now ready to use firefox, this directory is usually located in / usr/lib64/firefox5. To be finalized, change the file permissions firefox;
Code:
chown-R root.root firefox
Copy the firefox to / usr/lib64/firefox5;
Code:
cp-a firefox / usr/lib64/firefox5
It only remains to start the new browser or create a shortcut of it;
Code:
/ Usr/lib64/firefox5/firefox
