I got this from the opensuse repository. Is this happening to

Bob,
Just go to the mirror to download the needed files manually or use your
chosen update tool to get & install them. They are with Firefox there.
DO NOT use --force to install just Firefox, as you may find yourself
with a broken Firefox. There are times the --force option can be used,
but this is not one of them. It should be avoided whenever possible as
you'll find yourself with broken programs or a broken rpm database!

Whatever location you have setup to retrieve the Firefox, you can get
the needed files also.

bye,
Lee
