Yeah... unfortunately. It's November 2015, the 64bit servers are installed and if I recall correctly they are working; it's pretty hard to find a 32bit machine any more, and yet we still can't get "official" 64bit builds. Thanks to those who do provide the "unofficial" 64bit builds - is there a build config flag that will allow checking for updated versions in the 64bit builds? _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
