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
Can't you use Ubuntuzilla with Debian?
For multiple reasons I do not want anything other than official Debian
references in my sources.list file.
The .deb files are here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ubuntuzilla/files/mozilla/apt/pool/main/s/seamonkey-mozilla-build/
That points to
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ubuntuzilla/files/mozilla/apt/pool/main/s/seamonkey-mozilla-build/seamonkey-mozilla-build_2.49.4-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb/download
should do nicely [I've installed local .deb files before].
Thank you.
This will be kept current as the maintainer is notified.
