With Seamonkey, I've been through several updates that took a week-plus
to get into the PPA, at it was almost enough to make me consider
abandoning Seamonkey on my Linux box.  Generally, I'm finding that the
Ubuntuzilla updates are getting out somewhat faster.

Right now, I'm waiting to see which updates first -- Windows or
Ubuntuzilla.

If you use lightning you'll need to use lightning 2.0b1 instead of 1.9.

My system has not yet offered to update to 2.15 for some reason.

So it appears that the update is seen, but I have yet to be asked to
install it.  Any idea why it is not offering the upgrade?

Does your system provide the 64-bit build you are using or did you
install it manually?

AFAIK 64-bit builds do not update using the "Check for Updates..."
feature. You have to download and install it from SeaMonkey because it
is a contributed build, not an official release.

I have added Joe Lesko's PPA to my list of repositories, which is shown in the apt-cache display. Given this I would expect mint-update to offer to upgrade it for me, as it has on my maya system, but that has not yet occurred. I am puzzled why it has not yet been offered, but perhaps I should be asking this on the mint forums as opposed to here.
