Of course if you've downloaded the mozilla packages from mozilla.org 
that won't work, they're not RPMs. You'll need to wait 'till someone 
packages them for your distro.

Those errors mean that nautilus (the GNOME file manager) uses bits of 
mozilla and requires it to be installed. Replacing it with the 
mozilla.org version probably won't make Nautilus happy, either.

The easy way IMHO: You don't /have/ to remove the old mozilla. I've had 
mozilla from mozilla.org in /usr/local/mozilla and the Debian woody 
mozilla 1.0 installed at the same time, no stress. Do make sure your 
path is correct though, or it can get confusing.
