Marc,

This has happened before with Fedora. I believe between Fedora 2 and 3
xorg 6.9 came out as well as the Firefox 1.0.2 -> 1.5 change and the
only way to get them was via external repos or wait for the upgrade to
the next core release.

FC6 is coming along nicely, and is due in Oct. If you really want the
bling upgrade and want to give back and do some testing I would
recommend upgrading. I'm using rawhide and it runs very nice.

Kevin
