Best regards, Erik client.py is no longer used and probably needs removing. For building 2.53.x one starting point is the README.txt on the ftp page: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/releases/2.53.4b1/README.txt You can leave out the "-b 2_53_4_beta_01" part to just pull whatever the current default branch is. You will need to make sure you have installed the build tools, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Build_Instructions/Simple_SeaMonkey_build#Installing_build_tools Minimum rust level is 1.37.0 (up to 1.43.1 should work). Clang version 9.0.1 is maximum tested. You will need a mozconfig similar to below (make sure you set a suitable MOZ_OBJDIR).

The common mozilla repos do not contain this script any longer and / or report this as a no longer supported approach. So HOW to compile seamonkey for Linux? There must be a way, otherwise there would not be an installer for Linux :-) Best regards, Erik ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Bulding Seamonkey - client.py missing
Hi all, I tried to build seamonkey from the sources and followed the instructions until this point: comm-central$ python client.py checkout python: can't open file 'client.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory I checked the cloned repo and there is no client.py existing - of course lots of other .py files but none that would fit the needs... same with the release repo... Where can I get this from? When checking for the firefox compilation, the steps are quite similar so I fail at the same step... hg, etc. was installed. Thanks!
