Obviously, seamonkey-locale-en (That's en_GB, if anything. en_US is

OK, thanks, I've now downloaded
seamonkey_2.23-Oubuntu1ppa4~quantal_amd64.deb, added the above APT
line and tried to see if Software center would install it.
Now getting a dependency not satisfiable: libfontconfig1 (>=2.9.0)
Can I fix this with an apt-get install.... -f command? If so, grateful
the exact syntax. My downloaded .deb is in /home/john/Downloads.
Or any better suggestions?
sudo apt-get install seamonkey
Or search for seamonkey in USC, but I don't use it, so I don't know.
Synaptic works, USC should too.
You don't download packages, there is apt for that. That applies to all
PPAs and all repositories.
Right, so thanks for putting me straight on handling PPAs. I have
managed them before on rare occasions, but as you can gather, I'm none
too familiar with them. From what you're saying here, I can now see it
ought to be a simple and straighforward procedure in Terminal, and I've
only been making life difficult for myself!
It's still not working though. Here's what I've now tried:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa: exalm/seamonkey
RESULT: gpg and OK
sudo apt-get update
RESULT: series of hits, gets, errors, fetched, & failed to fetch.
note that the failures appear to be related to Precise so since
I'd been advised the Quantal package ought to work OK on my Precise, I
thought the failures could be ignored.
sudo apt-get install seamonkey
RESULT: E: Package 'seamonkey' has no installation candidate
sudo apt-get install seamonkey_2.23-Oubuntu1ppa4~quantal_amd64.deb
RESULT: E: Unable to locate package seamonkey_2.23-
Oubuntu1ppa4~quantal_amd64.deb
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'seamonkey_2.23-
Oubuntu1ppa4~quantal_amd64.deb
I get the impression that perhaps I'm working with the wrong packages,
or at least doing things in the wrong order. Grateful some further
guidance that's geared down just a little towards an idiot's guide,
although I didn't think I was a complete idiot! [grin]
Anyway, I have seamonkey from my PPA and flashplugin-installer from
default $DISTRO-update/multiverse repo. But I have 32-bit system, so
things may be different on your side.
Difficult for me to guess whether it's these differences that are
showing up here, or whether it's procedural or package errors on my
part, or perhaps even that it just plain *doesn't work* on Precise ??
Possible suggestions:
1. I repeat my above attempts and post my full Terminal result
here, showing all the error and failed to fetch detail
2. Procedural and package guidance
3. Using TEAMVIEWER, a volunteer who is more familiar with PPAs
and seamonkey installation than I am, gets on to my system
and has a go at it themselves. My timezone is GMT+7
Ok, I have discovered that there is an option to copy packages to
different series without rebuilding. The package is now available for
Precise, enjoy. apt-get update && apt-get install seamonkey
