Possibly. My ubuntuzilla 2.40 is installed in opt - my 2.46 is in ~/home. But I do not use a symlink, instead I use the application menu options to point to which one I wish to use: SeaMonkey (mozilla) Command: /home/<user>/seamonkey/seamonkey/seamonkey SeaMonkey (ubuntuzilla 2.40) seamonkey %u (can also use /opt/seamonkey/seamonkey) _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
