Or, use the standard version from http://www.seamonkey-project.org/.
Just unpack& run from a home folder. That version will pickup and use
your existing ~/.mozilla/seamonkey profile w/o issue.
Any idea if this will work in Puppy Linux Spup 040 (a Slackware
derivative).
I would expect the tar of the binaries to work after you unpack it in a "good
place." For me that's /usr/local/seamonkey/2.0.6, put it where you will. I
create an icon on my (GNOME) toolbar to it, and customize the icon with the
version number.
I'd only put it in /usr/local if I planned to implement for multiple
users. Otherwise I've found that using a /home folder is cleaner &
safer. Plus the individual user can then use whatever version they wish.

Depends on how you do things, the /usr/local stays with the machine, the home
directory in some settings is likely to be be on a server, and get mounted (or
whatever Windows calls it, shared?) on machines with various OS versions and
CPUs. Not disagreeing, but my home directory isn't a good place for executables. :-(
Kind of depends on privilege as well, if you are not an admin you have to put it
where you have access, if you are only on one machine that works fine.
