Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for
security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please
reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a
security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or
in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match.

NEEDINFO_ENG has been deprecated in favor of NEEDINFO or ASSIGNED. Changing
status to ASSIGNED for ENG review.

Comment 3 John Thacker 2006-04-22 15:12:19 UTC
The problem here is that mozilla was recently updated, but epiphany depends on
mozilla, and a new version of epiphany had not yet been built against the newer
mozilla.  Thus, upgrading to mozilla-1.7.3 prevents one from installing
epiphany, which still required 1.7.2  The problem is not trying to install
epiphany first.
