I download. I unzip. I untar. I see lots of files, but nothing called "install" or "pkg".

There are no requirements listed for Solaris on the link above.

Are the Solaris requirements and instructions the same as Linux?

What does *Linux* have to do with the question I asked above?

I'm trying to install on Solaris 10, not Linux. I find no packages and no running insallation script. How am I supposed to even try to install?

This is what I did to install Firefox 3.6.12 on Oracle Solaris 10. I found that Firefox 3.5.9 was already installed and there exists /usr/bin/firefox and /usr/lib/firefox. Turns out that /usr/bin/firefox is a symlink to ../lib/firefox/firefox so all you really have to do is remove the old /usr/lib/firefox and extract the new tarball to /usr/lib.

These are the steps I followed. I did this all as root.

bash-3.00# uname -a

SunOS unknown 5.10 Generic_142910-17 i86pc i386 i86pc

I made a backup of the existing install in case I messed something up.

bash-3.00# cur_ver=`grep '^moz_libdir' /usr/bin/firefox | cut -d - -f 2`

bash-3.00# ln -sf /usr/lib/firefox-${cur_ver} /usr/bin/firefox-${cur_ver}

bash-3.00# mv /usr/lib/firefox /usr/lib/firefox-${cur_ver}

Then I cd to the directory where I extracted the tarball.

bash-3.00# ls

firefox

firefox-3.6.12.en-US.solaris-10-fcs-i386.tar.bz2

bash-3.00# find firefox -print | cpio -dp /usr/lib

That's it. I started Firefox from the desktop Launch menu item. Once it came up, I checked that it had my old history, which it did, so I assume my user profile was upgraded okay.

You could have just as easily extracted the tarball directly to /usr/lib (assuming the tarball is in the root directory).

bash-3.00# cd /usr/lib

bash-3.00# rm -rf firefox

bash-3.00# bzip2 -cd /firefox-3.6.12.en-US.solaris-10-fcs-i386.tar.bz2 | tar xf -
