I'll use the package from https://www.seamonkey-project.org/ rather
than from Debian repository.
I wish clarification of instructions at
www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/install-and-uninstall#install_linux
The first paragraph states:
Note: There is no installer available, but just extracting the tar.bz2
to the default directory (usually /usr/local/seamonkey) achieves the
same result as an installer would.
The instructions then say to do
mkdir seamonkey2
cd seamonkey2
and then extract files to that directory.
Question:
Is the intent to place the files in /usr/local/seamonkey/seamonkey2 ?
My intention is for all users to:
1. access the same executable.
2. have profiles and profile.ini under their own home directory.
The intent is to place the files in /usr/local/seamonkey/seamonkey2.
I would just use /usr/local/seamonkey/seamonkey
That should would for all users to access the same executable.
Each users profile and profile.ini would be in the hidden .mozilla
folder in their own home directory.
Being past 3 score and 10, I ask first :/
s/should would/should work
Make sure you use the -p switch for the executable.
I assume that's the same as when I was under WinXP.
If you want each user to have and use a different profile. I'm not sure
it prevents them from using another and messing it up.
You can create shortcuts for each users profile.
