Reference: [https://www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/install-and-uninstall#install_linux]

I date back to using Netscape 4.? on Windows.
I've used SeaMonkey on 32 bit Debian since Squeeze.
[The less said about how I installed it the better ;]

Having acquired some software only available in 64 bit I'm doing a fresh install of Debian Stable.

I wish to install the Linux/x86_64 version of SeaMonkey in such a manner that the installation will be _indistinguishable_ from what it would be
*IF A STANDARD .DEB PACKAGE WAS AVAILABLE* .

As I read
Note:There is no installer available, but just extracting the tar.bz2
to the default directory (usually /usr/local/seamonkey) achieves the
same result as an installer would.
it appears to conflict with the rest of the text.

With the MATE desktop using Caja file manager I believe I should:
  1. copy seamonkey-2.49.4.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 to
     /usr/local/
  2. click on it and choose "Extract Here"

Am I correct?

TIA
