That, plus, if there are any unsatisfied dependencies, they'll get pulled in from trusted repos. I'll admit that that is probably unlikely with an updated CentOS 5 and Seamonkey, but having been burned really bad, trying to cram CUPS into RedHat 7.2, I try to avoid tarballs unless they're part of a well-documented procedure such as that published by ATI (AMD) for their proprietary video drivers. Even then, I elect to create an RPM and install it. Old farts gather a lot of paranoias, Marc. Thanks for pushing me off TDC, though, and thanks even more for the hung sound info! ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] CentOS 5 and seamonkey
Has anyone had any success in rebuilding seamonkey 2.0.4 for CentOS 5 (32-bit)? I'm currently running seamonkey-2.0-1 which I rebuilt last November. Sadly, I have no idea where the SRPM originated. I found seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm and seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm, downloaded and got to 0th base: [...@madeleine Downloads]$ rpmbuild --rebuild seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm Installing seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm warning: InstallSourcePackage: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 signature: NOKEY, key ID 57bbccba warning: user mockbuild does not exist - using root warning: group mockbuild does not exist - using root error: unpacking of archive failed on file /home/rj/rpmbuild/SOURCES/find-external-requires;4c000273: cpio: MD5 sum mismatch error: seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm cannot be installed So, have md5sum or cpio been changed? Mine should be the latest from CentOS: [...@madeleine Downloads]$ rpm -q coreutils coreutils-5.97-23.el5_4.2.i386 [...@madeleine Downloads]$ rpm -q cpio cpio-2.6-23.el5_4.1.i386 Or am I looking at the wrong thing? BTW, the reason I'm after 2.0.4 is that a friend tells me that he's using 2.0.4 under Windows XP and that it does NOT have the problem with the email address completion that I see and that he also saw until he upgraded his.

You can get the official 2.0.4 release directly from mozilla.org, and it comes in 32 and 64 bit versions (AFAICT). You can also get mainline and beta sources from them, if you really want to build it yourself, but there's no need or that.

Works fine on my Athlon II X4 system. Caveat: I've had an issue with both Seamonkey and Firefox for a long time now because they both have a tendency to lose audio-video sync on flash videos after the browser has been running for a long period of time, usually a day or two. I have a bugzilla report in to them, and it's not fixed yet in the latest releases of either one. HTH.

You can always install it as a non-root user and test it out before putting it into /opt (or wherever you prefer) as root. THANKS for that information.

If you would like to weigh in on this, it bug # 465788 at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/. If I'm not the only one seeing it, that might inspire them to devote more resources to fixing it.
