Installing Firefox 1.0.7 i686 on Fedora 4 i386

[peter wu]

Hi, all,
 
 I have Fedora 4, and wanted to upgrade Firefox from version 1.0.4 that came with installation CD to version 1.0.7. However, installing the new version gives me the following error msg:
 
 -----------
 [root at localhost firefox-installer]# ./firefox-installer
 ./firefox-installer-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
 -----------
 
 I found out that in /usr/lib, there is libstdc++.so.6 instead of libstdc++.so.5. I did some googling, and somehow managed to put libstdc++.so.5 as well. Now I get the following msg:
 
 -------------
 [root at localhost firefox-installer]# ./firefox-installer
 
 (firefox-installer-bin:32430): Pango-WARNING **: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to pango_layout_set_text()
 
 (firefox-installer-bin:32430): Pango-WARNING **: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to pango_layout_set_text()
 
 (firefox-installer-bin:32430): Pango-WARNING **: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to pango_layout_set_text()
 
 (firefox-installer-bin:32430): Pango-WARNING **: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to pango_layout_set_text()
 [root at localhost firefox-installer]# /usr/firefox-installer/firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libXp.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
 -----------
 
 Also, I realize that Firefox 1.0.7 is for i686, whereas I have Fedorr 4 i386. Could this be the problem???
 
 Thanks in advance for your help.
