However, keep in mind that had I not said anything, and you made the
repo copies, then *most* users would get the expected behavior which is
mozilla-1.1 and working plugins.
Once again, this would only affect mozilla-vendor and mozilla-devel, and
only if attempting to install flashplugin and/or plugger.
So, our choices are ship as is, which is broken in regards to
Mozilla 1.1 (which mozilla advertises as their current browser).
Or perform the repo copy which would then leave mozilla-vendor and
mozilla-devel out in the cold until a solution is found.
Food for thought or brain candy, your choice... 8)
