I had the same problem, and I've posted about this. It irked me that
someone else complained about the problem and all he got was something
like "serves you right for trying to mix cooker packages with a 9.0
installation". If a package upgrade breaks that package, it means either
there's a bug in the package itself, or something else is missing. I felt
like whacking whoever it was that gave that reply with a clue-by-four.

Anyways...and I hope the Mozilla maintainer(s) take note of this: The
dependencies in that rpm need to be fixed. I'm not sure which it is,
whether glibc or GTK, but upgrading both of those packages fixed the
problem for me. There's no reason why any upgrade should fail if all
dependencies are correctly resolved.
