TomThe replacement for iceape was discussed in the original thread that you started about iceape. iceape is, I believe, a Debian derivative of Seamonkey, and I assume that people from the Debian Project, or, the developers of iceape, could clarify this. So, on the premise that I am more or less correct in stating that iceape is a Debian derivative of Seamonkey, then, where iceape is not available, the logical, and, closest, replacement for iceape, is Seamonkey. Simple.Maybe. I have been using iceape for a long time, at least 10 years I belive, so maybe the lineage is the other way around. At any rate there is no Seamonkey on Jessie. Its sad losing iceape suite which integrated iceape browser and iceape mail and newsgroups into one package. Still we must progress.OK. Seamonkey is Icedove in Jessie, looks familiar. I will save the installation folder .mozilla and replace it with my iceape .mozilla folder and see what happens. TomSee http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Corporation_software_rebranded_by_the_Debian_project and https://launchpad.net/iceape These are only two of the many results, from searching for the terms "iceape" and "suite". I believe that the information shows that iceape was created and released as Debian software, in about 2007, with the Debian version named "etch", with iceape being a derivative of Seamonkey, and that iceape was created for the Debian Project, due to licensing and trademark issues.Oh, and, I have been using iceape and Seamonkey, and, the parent software; the Netscape suite, from back when I think it was about Netscape 3, I think, following the evolution of the integrated suite. I do remember using it, when it was Netscape, before the separated Mozilla suite.
Maybe make a backup of that directory first?? :) Ric -- My father, Victor Moore (Vic) used to say: "There are two Great Sins in the world... ..the Sin of Ignorance, and the Sin of Stupidity. Only the former may be overcome." R.I.P. Dad. http://linuxcounter.net/user/44256.html
