    Are there nightly seamonkey builds compiled that way? I don't see any
    distinction at my usual download location:
    http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest-trunk/

    I just installed 8.2, and 1.2.1 just doesn't cut it for those of us used
    to 1.4 and later. What's the best way to upgrade the rpm's installed
    with the distro to something much more recent? Convert the tar.gz to rpm
    and install that?
