Seamonkey ubuntu9/22/2023 Then I swapped the HD's around so the new drive was primary inside the case, and the old drive was in an external eSATA enclosure. Manual installations from correct, X64, download working now on both PC's.īut just to check my sanity, I did put the old HD back in the 1st PC as the primary/system drive, and managed to start the SM 2.48 I have been using, and found that it is indeed the X64 version. Will update results here once I see how that turns out. Now I can understand that somehow I figured all this out about a year ago when I installed SM 2.48 on the newer 1st PC, and SM 2.46 on the 2nd, older PC, and probably forgot the extra effort to find the 64-bit SM versions, butĪ) Why on earth would the direct update from that 2.46 automatically download the 32-bit version ?ī) Why did copying over a working 2.48 SM on 1st PC (2.48 gave some message to effect I needed to do it manually instead initiating from running version IIRC), presumably 64-bit on the old disk running 64-bit LinuxMint 18.3 not give me a working version?Īt any rate, I will proceed with trying the manual 64-bit SM 2.49.1 downloads I just got to see if that indeed gets me back up and running with my long-term browser/email package from back in the days of Netscape (on OS/2 even -} ). So that was a bit more of a clue which led me to this discussion. Libgtk-3.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/lib/seamonkey/libmozgtk.so: On a different PC, also running 64-bit LinuxMint 18.3, I was able to start up 2.46 SM as usual under the root Id, and perform the update, but then got a bit more informative error: ![]() That was giving vague messages like "./seamonkey file not found", which left me wondering why the command could not find the file the command named (seamonkey) even though it was in my pwd, and worked on the old disk drive with the same software and ini files. I have been going round and round with this issue the last 2 days on 2 different PC's with 64-bit Linuxmint 18.3, one a new build that would not run the Seamonkey 2.48 I copied over from an older disk (whole home dir for main personal Id) that was running same 64-bit LinuxMint 18.3. what's the prerequisites of making the Linu圆4 builds 'official' aside for the issue of getting the tests done for Linu圆4 but our testing infrastructure is busted.Maybe change the online documentation? (perhaps as part of bug 1208822 "System Requirements page needs update"?).How are we going to get out of the following vicious circle? 64-bit builds are not "official" because too few users, and users don't install them (some even prefer compiling their own) because they aren't "official".I pointed them to the x86_64 release at the bottom of the "Other languages" release page for 2.38 and to the x86_64 2.40a2 aurora & 2.41a1 trunk builds at the bottom of the ftp.m.o nightly/latest-comm-* pages but they said these were not "official". On October 7 two people asked in #seamonkey at a few minutes' interval when there would be "official" 64-bit SM builds for Linux.What about declaring linux-x86_64 builds found at and at ftp.m.o as "official" ? - Tonymec (talk) 13:56, 7 October 2015 (PDT) SM 2.35 was delayed, no 2.36 and 2.37, there is 2.38, 2.39 and 2.40 but no releases since as it has basically missed three major Releases. The SeaMonkey community is struggling to get new Releases out as is due to building, machines and infrastructure issues. Besides many Linux distros provide 64-bit SeaMonkey packages for SM 2.40. The 64-bit Linux version is only as en-US and no other languages and is not really official even though it is built on same machines as I said. The 64-bit build is on the page I mentioned yes. So I repeat my original question, why don't they have a 64-bit version readily and easily and obviously available? ![]() Why wouldn't they have included the 64-bit as well as the 32-bit version?įollow-up: I looked more carefully, and if you dig around you can find the 64-bit version, but it's under the heading "Contributed builds (other platforms)", and to a relative newcomer such as myself, I would never have thought to look here, having trusted that the Linux download link provided by the website at the top of the page was correct.
