Thanks guys... yes I know where and how to get 64 and 32 bit linux
builds via SeaMonkey or repositories. My point is that when purposely
checking for updates, the response is "No Updates Found":

Help|Check for Updates
===> "No Updates Found" "There are not updates available. Please check
again later or enable SeaMonkey's automatic update checking."

Regardless of whether or not I need to download directly, my version
should let me know that a new version is available. Otherwise you might
at well just remove the "Check for Updates" option.

Note to Walt - I wasn't asking where to find the file to download:
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/#2.39
Linux/x86_64
    Linux/x86_64 .tar.bz2 (readme) (MD5 sum) (SHA1 sum)

https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/releases/2.39/contrib/seamonkey-2.39.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
works fine. I was asking why "Check for Updates" does not work.
