That is indeed unusual. If you check the tar.bz $ tar -tvf seamonkey-2.15.1.tar.bz2 $ md5sum seamonkey-2.15.1.tar.bz2 39af07da664bd100e4f9c4941cb81987 seamonkey-2.15.1.tar.bz2 and $ tar -tvf seamonkey-2.15.1.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 $ md5sum seamonkey-2.15.1.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 db4961c7df843c716c67a7b07066b8de seamonkey-2.15.1.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 you should find (32bit & 64bit respectively): drwxr-xr-x 0/0 0 2013-01-18 20:03 seamonkey/searchplugins/ -rw-r--r-- 0/0 1747 2013-01-18 20:03 seamonkey/searchplugins/creativecommons.xml -rw-r--r-- 0/0 1251 2013-01-18 20:03 seamonkey/searchplugins/yahoo.xml -rw-r--r-- 0/0 1391 2013-01-18 20:03 seamonkey/searchplugins/wikipedia.xml -rw-r--r-- 0/0 2584 2013-01-18 20:03 seamonkey/searchplugins/google.xml and drwxr-xr-x 0/0 0 2013-01-18 20:04 seamonkey/searchplugins/ -rw-r--r-- 0/0 1391 2013-01-18 20:04 seamonkey/searchplugins/wikipedia.xml -rw-r--r-- 0/0 1251 2013-01-18 20:04 seamonkey/searchplugins/yahoo.xml -rw-r--r-- 0/0 2584 2013-01-18 20:04 seamonkey/searchplugins/google.xml -rw-r--r-- 0/0 1747 2013-01-18 20:04 seamonkey/searchplugins/creativecommons.xml So if those aren't getting extracted, then yes you've a problem. How are you extracting the .tar.bz? > > So I know now how o correct the situation, but it seems not to be normal > that those xml files aren't in the seamonkey tar file. I also check the German version: $ md5sum seamonkey-2.15.1.tar.bz2 fb9042404aa5bed8f1db26e1dc3fb994 seamonkey-2.15.1.tar.bz2 and the directory & xml files are there as well. > > As said in another part of the thread. > I have the same issue with the firefox 18.01 tar. > When extraced the searchplugins directory is empty. > And I also don't have the pull down list until I copy by hand the xml files. > > Hope I answered as you wished. > _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
