I gave it a retry, and remi's FF7/xulrunner7 definitely does not work
for certain youtube/flash files, or so it seems.

This one does not work, for example:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tK0O30aFT7g&feature=email

So, I am going to revert back to the old FF 3.7.

Works for me here.

# rpm -qa | grep -E 'firefox|flash|adobe|remi'
firefox-7.0.1-1.fc14.remi.x86_64
adobe-release-x86_64-1.0-1.noarch
remi-release-14-6.fc14.remi.noarch
xulrunner7-7.0.1-1.fc14.remi.x86_64
flash-plugin-11.0.1.152-release.x86_64

How did you install your flash? Did you use yum? These days adobe
provides yum repos for both 32 bit and 64 bit flash (as you can see
above).

Then, you aren't running the Fedora packaged version.

That is true. But I run what I can get. Does Fedora have a packaged
version for Firefox 7.
The latest version in F14 repos is: firefox-3.6.23-1.fc14.i686

That happens even with the Fedora packaged version.
iirc "You are now running version x.xx,
we reccomend you upgrade to Firefox 7, the latest version.
I get that on my F14 vms'

And the answer from the link is no, Fedora 14 doesn't have a packaged version
of Firefox 7. You have to use the remi repo for that, which is a 3rd party
repo. So if you have F14, there is no such thing as
"Fedora packaged Firefox 7".

But what I would like to know (and Rahul's link doesn't explain) is *why* F14
doesn't have FF7? At this point F14 will be EOL'd soon, so it doesn't make
sense to update FF now, but it did make sense several months ago. Why wasn't
it done?

Best, :-)
