IMHO backporting security patches from 2.x to 1.5.x.y conflicts with
fedora's philosophy of beeing bleeding edge.
So I think that there only two real alternatives:
- - Updating the Firefox of Fedora Core 5 & 6 to version 2.0.x.y.
- - Updating the Firefox of Fedora Core 5 & 6 to a non final version of
Firefox 3 with all the risks of a non final version.
Personally I'd prever to update firefox to version 2.0.x.y until version
3 final is released.
