With official build from ftp.mozilla.org it's work :

getting ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/releases/2.0.4/linux-i686/fr/seamonkey-2.0.4.tar.bz2 extract it to /tmp and after :

$ sudo chown root:root /tmp/seamonkey
$ sudo mv /tmp/seamonkey /tmp/seamonkey.2.0.4
$ sudo mv /tmp/seamonkey.2.0.4/ /usr/local/

and then launch
/usr/local/seamonkey.2.0.4/seamonkey https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seamonkey/+bug/593571

I have the same bug on another Ubuntu PC which runs a 64 bit Ubuntu.

Hi,
When will it be fixed in Lucid?

In lucid we are still in version 2.0.4 and not in 2.0.5 : http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/seamonkey20.html#seamonkey2.0.5 (I didn't found a bug on that on launchpad).

Lucid has 2.0.5 now, sorry about that. I will try and fix this in Lucid for 2.0.6, but it might have to wait until 2.0.7. The candidate for 2.0.6 is already built in the staging PPA, and I don't really want to hog the build-daemons any more than i need to

2.0.7 is now built with this fix in the ubuntu-mozilla-security PPA (ppa:ubuntu-mozilla-security/ppa). Please install and test it :)

Hi,

It's working on Ubuntu lucid with your PPA.

I've checked RSS Settings and I've subcribed to this bug RSS and this one : http://petrole.blog.lemonde.fr/feed/ .

Thanks a lot for your work.

Now I will use Ubuntu Seamonkey package instead of mozilla archive!

When bug #575160 will be fixed it will be perfect!

I've tried with i686 Linux I will try after with a 64 bit PC.

It also works on 64 bit linux.

Hi,
Today I had a crash when writing an email and apport doesn't want to report it.

@yamo
apport does not have a way to file bugs from a PPA. Your best bet is probably trying apport-retrace locally, please file a new bug if you need help with this.

Hi,

I don't know how using apport-retrace and I had a crash when using it : bug #448158.

I reported a new bug on seamonkey : bug #/631398.

This is fixed in Lucid now
