If you show those (you should) then create a test profile and see if the
search options show up in the test profile. If so, then you have a
profile issue, not a SeaMonkey version/install issue.
You will show those ONLY if you install SeaMonkey in your home directory.
If you install it in /usr/local, you will see
directory of: /usr/local/seamonkey/searchplugins

I am a bit confused now.
Where should the searchplugins directory be in?
In the profile directory structure?
Or in the program directory structure?
In my case for FireFox as for SeaMonkey, the program files are not
installed in the home directory structure, but elsewhere.
So I don't find searchplugins in the profile (home) directory structure
nor for FireFox nor for SeaMonkey.
FireFox has the searchplugins in the program files directory structure,
but, SeaMonkey when freshly installed doesn't have the searchplugins
directory in the program files directory structure.
Hence my suspicion that the tar file for SeaMonkey 2.15 and SeaMonkey
2.15,1 have that searchplugins directory missing.
Well well.
As the FireFox I have was pre-installed in the version linux I have, I
thought to download the 18.01 tar and extract it in a test directory.
To my surprise, the searchplugins directory is empty as well, like in
the SeaMonkey 2.15 and 2.15.1 case.
So the pertinent question remains: What is the correct place to put the
search xml files in?
