Hi

I had downloaded opera under linux.  The same did not get installed under 7.2.
Where as the same is working fine under 7.1

I had also downloaded yahoo messenger for redhat linux.  The same did not get
installed under 7.2. Where as the same is working fine under 7.1

Hope i have given the bug details proper.

Red Hat 7.2 provides a compatible ABI for all  Red Hat 7.x platforms,
so the sepeartely downloaded packages should continue to work. If necessary,
download again and reinstall.

If the 3rd party package for Red Hat 7.1 does *not* work with Red Hat 7.2
for some reason, then you will need to 
	1) contact the 3rd party vendor to find out what the incompatibility is.
	Specifically, you will need to identify the Red Hat package that
	is incomaptible with the 3rd party software.
	2) Report the incompatibility as a bug against the "broken" Red Hat package.
