The libc version on Engima was missing them when it was published. The had an update to take care of it.
To get Firefox installed you need to use the statically linked version of firefox against the libc5 versions.
It sucks, but you experience this when trying to install the latest game requiring DirectX v9.0g which is not available for Win98 and never will be. But v9.0c did work... so it isn't just a failing on a standard, it is a failing to keep it up-to-date.
I can drag and drop installs too. I use synaptic for that.
