I beta test the latest nightly of seamonkey suite on SuSE 10 and SuSE 10.1 beta 1 each day so I was glad to see it is now included on the SuSE 10.1 beta 1 disc/ftp... I have two questions, regarding the placement and incompleteness of the seamonkey rpm. 1. why was it moved into /usr/local/ instead of the previous SuSE 10 location of mozilla 1.7.12 in /opt/ ...
It's in /usr/%{_libdir} where it belongs. /opt should be reserved for third-party vendor stuff. mozilla was there for historical reasons but with the change to SeaMonkey it was moved to the correct place.
I will just re-write my seamonkey nightly to reflect this... I just got used to it being in /opt/ and I also have my symlinks pointing there... I use the continuous seamonkey alpha development nightly in this location but I will change it if the seamonkey beta will be there in the /usr~ now. Thanks.
2. why is it the basic alpha 1.0.x seamonkey browser/composer instead of the full suite?
I don't understand this question? What do you mean by alpha? We have not reached the final 1.0 version right now. And seamonkey has the following packages:
seamonkey seamonkey-calendar seamonkey-dom-inspector seamonkey-irc seamonkey-mail seamonkey-spellchecker seamonkey-venkman
So which component do you miss?
CU,
Wolfgang
I didn't miss any on the ftp (cd has only the browser/composer), but I wondered why it was not in one complete suite as mozilla suite 1.7.12 was... ...sorry about the misunderstanding about the beta/alpha terms; I was referring to the seamonkey suite build. the seamonkey build is an beta that is packaged on the suse 10.1 beta1 cd/ftp and I use the seamonkey alpha build from the nightly... thanks for the explanation! jazzis -- Think different! http://www.apple.com/hardware/
