Downlevel was never supported by SeaMonkey or Gecko so the distributed 
lightning is not picked up. It is now a packed extension which makes 
installing it manually pretty easy. Profiles are more or less compatible too 
with latest versions but might change any time.


Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what's the procedure for "removing" 
the "incompatible" Lightning version and "installing" the "compatible" packed 
version?  I would have expected installing the previous version to fully 
replace the prior / "newer" one, but I'm guessing it's got a version string in 
some configuration file that confuses it?


Ypu can find the xpi in distribution\extensions under the user friedly name 
{e2fda1a4-762b-4020-b5ad-a41df1933103}.xpi :)


Just drop it over the browser window and you should get an installation prompt.

The other option is to remove the newer and and reset the distribution key. 
Outlined in the release notes under
Known Issues->Lightning or one of the distributed extensions is not showing up 
or is disabled under Add-ons.

That said I am not aware of any sites not working in 2.53.3 which worked in 
2.53.2. Probably a different problem maybe with antivirus software.

This version of SeaMonkey makes changes to your profile that can't be 
reverted in the case where you want to go back to an earlier version. 
You MUST absolutely do a full backup of your profile before using this 
application.


I never saw anything like this on previous versions.
Is it something to be REALLY concerned with?

There wasn't a 2.50, 2.51 or 2.52.

The release notes for 2.48 also say in big red letters.

"Automatic upgrades from previous versions are, for most configurations, 
disabled for this release. Please download the full installer from the 
downloads section and install SeaMonkey 2.49.1 manually over the 
previous version."


REF: 

That is also in the current release notes for SeaMonkey 2.53.3.



The trick is to find the release notes and *read* them before installing 
a new version.


Reading the first post in the announcement thread and following the 2nd 
link is a good start.


Maybe you could suggest to Edmund that the links be posted this way.
