How to install Seamonkey
Hello. I am a Debian user, and I have been using iceape for a number of years, which has been provided within the Debian repositories, as a .deb package, for installation and updating, using the Debian package managers. I have a computer, upon which, I have installed Debian 7.5 Linux, with the LXDE desktop, and I want to run Seamonkey or iceape, on that conputer. The Debian project ceased provision of iceape, with Debian 7, and now, to get the suite, a user has to revert to installing and using Seamonkey. In my trying to find how to install Seamonkey, I found the web page at http://www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/install-and-uninstall and I followed the instructions for Linux. However, in trying to run Seamonkey, using ./seamonkey, as directed, I get No such file or directory. How do I get Seamonkey to work, and, how do I get Seamonkey into the LXDE applications menu, so that it can be rubn from the applications menu? -- Bret Busby Armadale West Australia ..

When I install a new version, I copy the downloaded .bz2 file into /home/daniel/Internet/SeaMonkey/Betas and then, when I run (i.e. de-compact) the .bz2 file, it gets installed into /home/daniel/Internet/SeaMonkey/Betas/seamonkey. Then I create a desktop icon which has, in its Command: location /home/daniel/Internet/SeaMonkey/Betas/seamonkey/seamonkey-bin If you make appropriate changes for your installation location, your desktop icon might start it up. By-the-By, I actually dual boot with Win7 and have my SeaMonkey Profile on my E:\ drive so both Win7 and Linux installations can use the one profile. -- Daniel (from Victoria) User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 SeaMonkey/2.26 Build identifier: 20140415200419 or User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.26 Build identifier: 20140408191805 ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
