Where do I find firefox-devel and what should it contain? 

$ yum search firefox|grep '^firefox'
firefox.x86_64 : Mozilla Firefox Web browser
$ rpm -qa |egrep "firefox|nspr"
nspr-4.7.1-0.9.1.fc9.x86_64
nspr-devel-4.7.1-0.9.1.fc9.x86_64
nspr-4.7.1-0.9.1.fc9.i386
firefox-3.0-1.fc9.x86_64
$ yumdownloader --source firefox > download.log 2>&1
$ sudo rpmbuild --rebuild firefox-3.0-1.fc9.src.rpm > build.log 2>&1
$ ls /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/*/firefox*
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/x86_64/firefox-3.0-1.fc9.x86_64.rpm
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/x86_64/firefox-debuginfo-3.0-1.fc9.x86_64.rpm

I have even tried downloading, building,  and installing the firefox
source from mozilla just in case the rpm package is missing something,
but still no joy.
