Those are not updated for some time because of time constraints on my side.

Seamonkey - according to their webpage - have no version higher than 2.40. Actually some weeks ago I prepared a newer version based on a VCS tag which I also have built against Gtk2. This is currently lingering in mozilla instead but not published because I haven't seen an official release yet.

VCS _tag_? Lingering??? Aren't such things part of why mozilla:/alpha/* and mozilla:/beta/* exist?

Myriad changes in the construction process caused by FF changes have overpowered the SM team's resource pool for nearly a year: https://blog.seamonkey-project.org/2016/12/01/face-the-music/ That said, there are public unofficial 2.46 and 2.47 builds available, but they are built with GTK3: https://unofficialseamonkeynews.wordpress.com/ For some people, among them me, GTK3 presents serious usability problems: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269145 open https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269149 open https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269274 wontfix, but more realistically probably cantfix, because of upstream in GTK wontfix Maybe someday we could see workaround for Gnome devs' attitude problem: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=367499 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98909 What I'm actually using is a GTK2 build: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.46; Build ID: 20161005013219 But it came from someplace I cannot remember any details about, other than getting a source URI from irc://moznet/#seamonkey -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

So first you ignored my first statement that beta/alpha/experimental is currently not in scope of what I'm doing. The newer version was prepared because it has an official VCS tag and there was a good chance that it'll be released. That's how I prepare every stable build when I see one coming.

Not news to me. Just said there is no official newer release on their page.
That said, there are public unofficial 2.46 and 2.47 builds available, but they are built with GTK3: https://unofficialseamonkeynews.wordpress.com/
We no not ship Gtk2 builds for Firefox yet in Leap for example. I still plan to provide Gtk2 Seamonkey builds if it is possible and _there is a release_. Probably if I'm in the mood I could move the already prepared SM build to the beta repo. But usually demanding requests do not help to achieve that.
