Hi, I'm trying to do a clean install of SM 2.23 on a new laptop using
Ubuntu 12.04.3, but I'm getting (seamonkey:5378 and 2917) errors.
More or less following the Linux Installation Instructions on
www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/install-and-uninstall, I've downloaded
seamonkey-2.23tar.bz to /usr/local, decompressed it into a
/user/local/seamonkey directory, and then cd seamonkey. All seems OK
up to this point, but then:
------[CODE]------
:/usr/local/seamonkey$ ./seamonkey
`menu_proxy_module_load': ./seamonkey: undefined symbol:
menu_proxy_module_load

-------[/CODE]------
NB: The above code was the result of my 2nd attempt after starting
again. On my 1st attempt I had a similar result where the failure lines
started with (seamonkey:5378) instead of (seamonkey:2917). What do
these figures mean?
On both occasions, although my Terminal still had processes running and
seamonkey failed to run correctly, a Seamonkey browser window
nevertheless did open and displayed
http://www,seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.23/ and the browser
basically worked.
When I then closed the browser, MY Terminal cleared. Trying to reopen
the programme with the command "seamonkey" gave me:
[QUOTE] The program 'seamonkey' is not currently installed. You can
install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install seamonkey [/QUOTE]
It's oerhaps worth pointng out that I've previously installed earlier
versions of Seamonkey on other laptops, the only difference on those
occasions was that I used a seamonkey directory in my home folder
instead of in /usr/local.
Another point it's perhaps worth mentioning is that I can't see how to
apply the instructions on /doc/install-and-uninstall to [QOUTE] hook up
SeaMonkey complete with icon to the GNOME Panel [/QUOTE] to Ubuntu 12.04
Unity desktop.
Dunno if my problems are related specifically to SM2.23 or that as an
incresingly forgetful old codger, I've made some stupid mistake.
Either way, wold appreciate some guidance. TIA :)
+ John
