I am using Fedora Cora 4 in home. But in my work place our instituttion uses
RedHat 8 Psyche. I got permission to install firefox and thunderbird.
I check dependencies.

Install yum from *linux.lsu.edu/yum/redhat/8.0/
Also, check if the required python library is present. Yum will make installing softwares easier.

Download the gzipped file .. Update your libstdc++ (your c++ libraries ) to version 6.Then it will work
