So I'm still confused reckon only Tony can clarify. Recent builds of SeaMonkey, but I don't know how recent, maybe only 2.4a1, will install the built-in ChatZilla (and the built-in DOM Inspector and the built-in Javascript Debugger) in your profile, but: - only if there was a change in the SeaMonkey version, AND - only if there isn't already an equal or newer version of the same extension in the profile. This implies that if you're using nightlies, and some bug is fixed in ChatZilla between one nightly and the next, you won't get the fix until the next SeaMonkey version unless you forcibly reinstall the fixed version. OTOH if you have installed ChatZilla from AMO, that profile copy will be overridden by the copy built into the _next_ version of SeaMonkey if it's newer: you won't be stranded forever with an obsolete version in your profile. There is no usable ChatZilla anymore under the application installation directory: you get the following: installdir/extensions/ only the default and Modern themes installdir/distribution/extensions/ the built-in extensions. They cannot be used directly from here. profile/extensions/ your extensions and themes, including any built-in extensions This install into the profile is made while checking for extensions' compatibility, and it will install ChatZilla in packed mode, leaving the unpacked XPI in your profile, even though ChatZilla requests unpack-at-install. The packed ChatZilla works, maybe even faster since there aren't many files to be fetched at different places on your HD, but its icon on the OS taskbar (NOT the icon on the SeaMonkey statusbar) is the default SeaMonkey icon (same blue icon as for the browser), not the grey cZ icon specific of ChatZilla. If you install ChatZilla yourself from AMO, or from somewhere on your HD, it will install in unpacked mode (a directory and a number of files and directory inside), and the image passed to the OS for display on the taskbar is a separate image file, not something inside an XPI, so the OS can display it.

You could also build any of Thunderbird, Firefox, or the ChatZilla, Lightning, Provider for Google Calendar, Dom Inspector and Javascript Debugger extensions from that same pile of code. Also Sunbird if it were still supported. The first problem is to find where and how in the comm repository (#1 above) the ChatZilla taskbar image from the irc repository (#3 above) is moved into the temporary directory structure which will then be archived into the .tar.bz2, the .dmg, or the .zip and .installer.exe which are what users will then download. The second problem (but I think I can get inspiration from Venkman on how to solve that) is where to put that icon so the OS can use it.

Workaround: How To Get Back the cZ Icon
In recent SeaMonkey builds, the ChatZilla window has lost its nice cZ
icon which was replaced by a SeaMonkey Icon. Here's how to get it back
(alas, it's not a once-and-for-all solution, only once-per-version):
Just reinstall ChatZilla as follows:
1. Open the add-ons manager
2. In the drop-down near the top, click Install Add-on From File…
3. In the file picker, go first to the install directory (this is
platform-dependent, maybe /usr/local/seamonkey, maybe C:\Program
Files\SeaMonkey, maybe something else)
4. Still in the file picker, go down into distribution/extensions
5. Select {59c81df5-4b7a-477b-912d-4e0fdf64e5f2}.xpi (by
double-clicking, or by one click followed by [ OK ] or [ Open ] or similar)
6. The popup should tell you that you're about to install ChatZilla.
When the countdown elapses, click Install Now.
7. Once the doorhanger (near the URL bar icon) tells you that ChatZilla
is installed, restart SeaMonkey.
Notice the nice cZ icon which is back on the taskbar when you start
ChatZilla? It will normally stay that way at least as long as you stay
on the same SeaMonkey version in the same profile. When you'll update to
some later SeaMonkey version (still in the same profile) there'll be a
check of your extensions' version compatibility at startup. At that
time, ChatZilla may go back to using the SeaMonkey icon, or even become
disabled: then repeat steps 1 to 7 above.
Note: At step 5, there may be three or four built-in extensions in
that directory:
debu...@mozilla.org.xpi (optional) Debug QA UI
inspec...@mozilla.org.xpi DOM Inspector
{59c81df5-4b7a-477b-912d-4e0fdf64e5f2}.xpi ChatZilla
{f13b157f-b174-47e7-a34d-4815ddfdfeb8}.xpi JavaScript Debugger
ChatZilla is the one with a name hard to remember, whose first hex
letter (i.e. digit 9) is c.
Best regards,
Tony.
