How dead is SeaMonkey?

2015-07-07 Thread Ed Mullen
I've seen several sort of oblique mentions here of the lack of development of SM. Also, haven't seen an update in a while. So, I'm beginning to feel that I'm nearing the point where I cannot any longer stick with SM. Kind of sad since I've been with it since Netscape back in, about, 1995.

SM 2.36 will not start without libmozalloc.dylib

2015-07-07 Thread EE
I decided to try SeaMonkey 2.36 on my Mac from Tinderbox builds on the Moz FTP site, and it would not start. I compared the contents of the app package of 2.36 with 2.35 and found that in the MacOS folder, libmozalloc.dylib is missing in SM 2.36. When I copied that file from SM 2.35 to 2.36,
