I had something similar, so added these as well. It takes a while to read the package information over a dialup connection shared with other users, such are the joys of working "in the community" :-(
I was partially confused by the lack of a listing for the latest versions of the packages I was looking for, but now understand that this is the reality. I only see old versions of thunderbird and firefox on those servers.
Stick with these offerings, if you can. They'll always install cleanly, with the right links. And SuSE have tested them thoroughly for user guarantee. Patience(tm) is necessary for the newer versions..
So I'm back to square one, it seems? My only / best option is the manual method of downloading the tar.gz files, uncompressing into a folder, and running the installer file?
