Hi

Mozilla suite is included in Fedora Core while Seamonkey which is the 
newer version is included in Fedora Extras. Mozilla suite is a older 
redundant code base with potential security issues in Fedora Core. The 
problem is that Yelp, Devhelp and possibly other packages are build 
against Mozilla suite and one way to resolve it is to include XULRunner 
and rebuild all the applications that require the Gecko engine against 
it or atleast rebuild all of them against Firefox and chuck out Mozilla 
suite. Comments?
