Thank you, David, for your quick answer.
In 08/11/19 21:10, David E. Ross dixit:
It is possible that your "full" disc problem affected the installation
of SeaMonkey or corrupted it. If this is true, then even SeaMonkey's
profile was impacted.
In that case, I suggest the following:
1. Uninstall SeaMonkey and delete its profile.
2. Restore the prior version of SeaMonkey and its profile from a
backup. (You do backups, don't you?) I assume that you did not have
this problem with the prior version.
I'm not sure when the present version of SM got installed, but I think
it's not a problem with *this* version, because this one was working
well before the disk got full.
Regarding the backup, I used to do backups but due to a problem of
memory anytime I launched the backup application I had to disable it :-(
So no backup in the last weeks. This is the reason I need some other
approach to the problem that does not include deleting of the profile data.
3. With a cleaned up primary disc -- with plenty of space -- install
SeaMonkey 2.49.5.
Now I got some 25 GB free in my /home unit.
Won't a forced reinstall do the same?
Some extra info: Seamonkey is installed at /usr/bin/seamonkey which is
another partition of the same disk, a partition which did not got full
at any moment. So, how the filling of the /home partition could have
affected this system partition? Strange, isn't it?
Thanks.
