My suggestion to do a rehash was in response to someone else having trouble after upgrading Firefox. It may or may not have been a great suggestion but that is all it was. If you have a good understanding of that command and why it may or may not be appropriate then I would be open ears. One of my friends who runs Debian tells me that he finds it necessary after doing software upgrades - yes I know that is a different OS. But sincerely, if you or someone else on this list has a good understanding of its function please enlighten, I love to learn.
