I'd recommend that you use Joe Lesko's PPA builds instead:
https://launchpad.net/~seamonkey2/+archive/seamonkey2
Note: he should have 2.0.6 up later today or tonight.
Add Joe's PPA:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:seamonkey2/seamonkey2
$ sudo apt-get update&& sudo apt-get upgrade
Then open Synaptic, unintstall the existing Canonical version& install
Joe's seamonkey2. All of your data/profiles will remain intact, but of
course it's always a good idea to backup your ~/.mozilla folder first,
just in case.
Or, use the standard version from http://www.seamonkey-project.org/.
Just unpack& run from a home folder. That version will pickup and use
your existing ~/.mozilla/seamonkey profile w/o issue.
Any idea if this will work in Puppy Linux Spup 040 (a Slackware
derivative).
I would expect the tar of the binaries to work after you unpack it in a "good
place." For me that's /usr/local/seamonkey/2.0.6, put it where you will. I
create an icon on my (GNOME) toolbar to it, and customize the icon with the
version number.
NOTE: you *may* have to remove some of the libraries (lib*.so) which have local
distribution libraries of the same name. Don't do it first, try it as unpacked,
often it will work fine.
If you have an issue, post back, I'm looking for a reason to drop mint in a VM
and try it. ;-)
