If all you want is to download the rpm (since you seem to have it installed) follow these steps: yum install yum-downloadonly yum update firefox -y --downloadonly If you don't have the package installed then replace 'update' with 'install' - it will only download it. You'll find the rpm file under /var/cache/yum/updates-newkey/...might be in a different dir so this will find it for you: find /var/cache/yum/ -depth -name *.rpm Otherwise you can add the livna repo like this: rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release.rpm If you have an issue running it then try removing it with yum and reinstalling. Tried yum remove firefox? Installing firefox from source...dependencies like flash can be a b*tch to handle...but that's only my experience: http://www.google.co.ke/#hl=en&q=firefox+install+source&meta=&aq=f&aqi=&aql=...

yum install firefox firefox-devel apt-get install firefox firefox-devel (depending on distro) should do the trick
