Greetings,
The SeaMonkey Project is pleased to announce the release of SeaMonkey
2.53.4 final.
"This version makes changes to your profile that can't be reverted in
case you want to go back to a previous version of SeaMonkey."
Is every profile now going to be forth digit version specific??? I got
all the way thru 1X without needing to maintain a profile archive, and
thru 2X until 2.5.
Not friendly.

There is no 2.5.x version. Well, there may be an old 2.5.x version.
I think that message may be there in case users want to go back to the
2.49.5 version. The 2.53.x series is a current version.
I could be wrong. In which case the statement needs some clarification.
What changes do the release notes indicate?
"Important only if you upgrade from 2.49.5 or an earlier version: Due to
changes in the user profile, if you have set a master password, you will
have to remove it before upgrading to SeaMonkey 2.53.4. After a
successful upgrade, don't forget to manually remove the files key3.db
and cert8.db in your profile afterwards, as they include credentials and
passwords no longer protected by a master password. You can find the
path to your profile folder entering the special about:support URL in a
SeaMonkey browser window.
You can remove your master password by providing an empty password in
the "Change Master Password" dialog. Do not use the "Reset Password"
function. You will lose all stored passwords this way."
"If you have a SeaMonkey 2.53.1 or 2.53.2 language pack installed you
need to remove it before upgrading to this version. These language pack
versions were marked to be compatible with all Seamonkey 2.53.x releases
and cause breakage when used with a different version. You can then
install one of the provided 2.53.4 language packs from the download
section after installation of the base product."
