[02-03-14 17:28]: I successfully installed suse 13.1 on my TkinkPad T60 and I have a problem with seamonkey, get the following error when I try to open it: Where did you get the seamonkey install and what version I got the latest version from mozilla site
when you do this, you get what you get....
jozien@linux-4w99:~/seamonkey> ./seamonkey XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /home/jozien/seamonkey/libxpcom.so: libxul.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Couldn't load XPCOM. jozien@linux-4w99:~/seamonkey> Normally on openSUSE using openSUSE rpms there would be no ~/<user>/seamonkey directory! Don't have this problem on my other debian distros I got the latest version from mozilla siteand they all run seamonkey without any problems. You said you were using "suse", I suppose you really mean openSUSE. What does demian have to do with it?
ps: You have not "successfully installed" seamonkey if it does not run. I successfully installed opensuse 13.1
http://download.opensuse.org/update/13.1/x86_64/seamonkey-2.23-4.3.x86_64.rp... I downloaded
seamonkey-2.23-4.3.x86_64.rpm and will install
you *really* should use packages built for the distro you utilize!
Please save yourself many headaches but using packages built specifically for your distro.

Been working fine for me for well over a decade, or whenever it was Mozilla.org abandoned Mozilla Suite in favor of Firefox and it had to be taken over under the new-as-official-application-name SeaMonkey by the community. This particular system runs 2 SM profiles and 3 FF profiles virtually continuously with rarely any problem I don't create myself or file or find an upstream bug for. One annoying exception: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=732670

Not including the ones that happen because versions in repos are often a week or more behind the mozilla.org builds, sometimes a month or more behind. :-p Valid reasons for not using distro rpms do exist, but it doesn't sound like OP has one though. :-) -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

I often use mozilla products from mozilla, mainly when the one from openSUSE have problem or to use nightly, but here I just tested the seamonkey and apart the fact than he didn't recover passwd from thunderbird, it works that sait it's more difficult to debug on this particular mailing list :- jdd -- http://www.dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Easy. It's missing a proper LD_LIBRARY_PATH that is usually set in the seamonkey/firefox/thunderbird shell-script, the actual binary is named '-bin', e.g. seamonkey-bin. Why that specific "./seamonkey" does not do that is beyond me, using sh -x ./seamonkey might help find out. -dnh, using the seamonkey RPMs from the Mozilla-Repo by W.

I installed seamonkey from mozilla just to see, that is dl the tgz, unzip the folder and clic on "seamonkey". I only have a ~/.mozilla/seamonkey new folder 13.1 jdd -- http://www.dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
