Background
If you’re like me and still hanging back on Fedora 14, here’s a way to stay on the latest versions of Firefox without having to upgrade Fedora just yet.
Solution
Thanks to this post on the if-not-true-then-false blog (aka. if !1 0), it’s pretty easy to get firefox 10 working just fine on Fedora 14. Here are the steps I took to get it installed in ~2 minutes.
