As a side note, I do not think gdebi works for this does it? You need apturl rather. I actually have a script I run (apturl is over 100Kb, while my script is much smaller) and have done this successfully.
I am asking if seamonkey's default configuration can include *network.protocol-handler.expose.apt (false) *This should be the default behaviour in Ubuntu/Debian. * *Or, is there a way I can run something from a terminal? Could I run something like: *seamonkey* --config network.protocol-handler.expose.apt --type Bool --value False It would be a bonus to be able to configure my apt handler script to be used from the terminal. Alternatively, what file do I edit in the system config that would allow me to make all new user's default setting to include the apt protocol. -- Regards _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
