You don't want the *src.rpm packages unless you intend to recompile the source
to mozilla/galeon yourself.
I think you want only the primary packages:
galeon-1.2.1-2.i386.rpm
mozilla-1.0rc2-0.i386.rpm
and probably,
mozilla-chat-1.0rc2-0.i386.rpm
mozilla-mail-1.0rc2-0.i386.rpm
mozilla-nspr-1.0rc2-0.i386.rpm
mozilla-nss-1.0rc2-0.i386.rpm
mozilla-psm-1.0rc2-0.i386.rpm
from:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.0rc2/Red_Hat_7x_RPMS/i386/
and
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6999
Then upgrade all the packages at once using the single command:
% rpm -UVh *.rpm
