Hello.
I am a Debian user, and I have been using iceape for a number of years,
which has been provided within the Debian repositories, as a .deb
package, for installation and updating, using the Debian package managers.
I have a computer, upon which, I have installed Debian 7.5 Linux, with
the LXDE desktop, and I want to run Seamonkey or iceape, on that conputer.
The Debian project ceased provision of iceape, with Debian 7, and now,
to get the suite, a user has to revert to installing and using Seamonkey.
In my trying to find how to install Seamonkey, I found the web page at
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/install-and-uninstall
and I followed the instructions for Linux.
However, in trying to run Seamonkey, using ./seamonkey, as directed, I
get "No such file or directory".
How do I get Seamonkey to work, and, how do I get Seamonkey into the
LXDE applications menu, so that it can be rubn from the applications menu?

Bret, (from WA, I think we've communicated before, on UseNet or
otherwise! *not that that matters)
I use SeaMonkey on MandriveLinux (but moving to Mageia, soon, I hope!!)
with the KDE desktop, and use a desktop Icon rather than the application
menu.
When I install a new version, I copy the downloaded .bz2 file into
/home/daniel/Internet/SeaMonkey/Betas and then, when I run (i.e.
de-compact) the .bz2 file, it gets installed into
/home/daniel/Internet/SeaMonkey/Betas/seamonkey.
Then I create a desktop icon which has, in its "Command:" location....
/home/daniel/Internet/SeaMonkey/Betas/seamonkey/seamonkey-bin
If you make appropriate changes for your installation location, your
desktop icon might start it up.
By-the-By, I actually dual boot with Win7 and have my SeaMonkey Profile
on my E:\ drive so both Win7 and Linux installations can use the one
profile.
