01:40:17 <ewong> frg_away:  the symbols should have been uploaded..   will reupload again
03:01:05 <root_> I want to know where seamonkey stores its list of open tabs it uses when it is started (in recover last windows/tabs mode)
03:03:09 <tomman> root_: wouldn't that be sessionstore.json?
03:04:13 <root_> I don't know, where is that file and I will check it?
03:10:19 <tomman> it's on the root of your profile directory, it's a big fat pile of JSON (as it not only stores open tabs, but also the complete browser history for each tab)
03:10:54 <tomman> just checked mine and indeed it matches what I have on my current session
03:11:55 <tomman> and of course, if it gets corrupted, your session goes straight to hell (happened to me once this year) - there is a backup (from the last successful startup?) as sessionstore.bak
03:12:11 <tomman> yeah, that's the one
03:15:41 <root_> found it, its over five meg, i see the backup too
03:17:58 <root_> Why i need it is because i accidentally clicked open tab on a "mailto" address and it went into an infinite loop opening tabs
03:20:12 <root_> when it was in that state i could not open any other tab and the tab menu did not include "open tabs to the right", it also ignored all the tab menu commands
03:21:02 <root_> I am now going to try to edit out all the useless tabs from the sessionstore.json file
03:23:40 <tomman> good luck~
03:29:25 <root_> i think this problem should be recorded as a bug, i have had it once before a year or so ago
03:30:34 <JobBautista[m]> root_: Do you have instructions in how to reproduce this problem?
03:31:56 <root_> all i did was "open link in new tab" and it was a "mailto" address
03:34:27 <root_> I have edited the sessionstore.json file and i am going to quit seamonkey and restart it
03:35:36 <root_> by the way i am very impressed with how easy it was to connect to this channel with irc
03:38:23 <pandakekok9> Wait, "open link in new tab"?
03:38:43 <pandakekok9> How is that even possible
03:39:23 <pandakekok9> right-clicking on a mailto link doesn't show that menuitem
03:45:31 <root_> back again
03:46:40 <root_> the edit didn't work, lost my tabs in my second window (usually have two seamonkey windows open)
03:47:07 <root_> its all running ok now
04:13:07 <pandakekok9> hey root_, how did you get the "open link in new tab" when right-clicking a mailto link?
04:13:28 <pandakekok9> root_: Do you have a link which can reproduce that?
04:17:24 <root_> the page was:  http://davidbau.com/ and the link is the is the first link below the LINKS heading on the left, rightclick then "open link in new tab", test it with something that doesn't matter (warning)
04:51:10 <pandakekok9> root_: I don't see the "open link in new tab" option there
04:51:20 <pandakekok9> root_: Are you using the latest version?
04:55:05 <pandakekok9> Perhaps some extension might be causing it?
04:58:34 <root_> 2.53.8.1, yes, i don't have it here also, but when it failed i used the top item in the rightclick menu and it when into hyperspace
06:18:34 <njsg> the mailto: link is added using javascript
06:19:50 <njsg> so the page itself does not have the mailto: link, and I wonder if it's possible there was some sort of race condition
06:20:27 <pandakekok9> Yeah, I thought it was some sort of race condition too as well
06:20:33 <njsg> I mean, that the hyperlink element would be created, somehow before it got the mailto: value, that'd explain how "open link in new tab" showed up
06:21:14 <njsg> extensions are indeed other possibility
06:22:24 <njsg> root_: if you can test further: can you consistently reproduce this?
06:22:38 <pandakekok9> that still doesn't explain why opening a mailto link in a new tab would cause the browser to open infinite tabs though. or maybe it was trying to open a blank link, which causes the bug?
06:22:49 <njsg> root_: and which version of SeaMonkey?
06:24:09 <njsg> I tried playing with simple code to change the target of a link, no strange behaviour observed here so far, this is probably a 2.53.9b1pre build
06:24:46 <njsg> but I also see that page takes some time to load, that could always play a role
06:25:35 <njsg> another question I have is: is this only happening on that page or does it happen everywhere?
11:10:29 <frg_Away> Also unable to reproduce the mailto problem. No "open link in new tab" for me too.
19:41:51 <eharmonic> hi does someone know off hand about what version seamonkey stopped using the navigator code and went to firefox code?
19:53:47 <frg_Away> eharmonic I don't know what you mean here. It still uses its own navigator code.
19:59:07 <eharmonic> 2.49.3 is firefox
20:00:15 <eharmonic> 2.40 and 2.46 are seamonkey and i'm in the process of compiling 2.48 - hopefully it is seamonkey
20:01:19 <IanN_Away> eharmonic: what platform?
20:02:22 <eharmonic> linux -    2.49.3 installs to /usr/lib/[firefox-52.7.3/ firefox-devel-52.7.3/]
20:02:36 <frg_Away> eharmonic I am still not sure what you mean. 2.49 might have some more backports but it is still SeaMonkey code. Are you missing functionality?
20:03:40 <IanN_Away> eharmonic: sounds like you are not setting a correct build parameter
20:04:13 <frg_Away> eharmonic There is no linux installer. Only a tar.bz2 package is created. Anything else is distor specific imho.
20:04:21 <eharmonic> problem is TOO much firefox functionality - no preferences and no control over what it might be doing  no about::config etc   2.46 is perfect but some sites need some new js functionality
20:04:25 <frg_Away> ^distro
20:05:17 <frg_Away> eharmonic about:config is in every release.
20:05:57 <eharmonic> even the prebuilt from the site 2.40 and 2.46 are good but the 2.48 prebuilt requires dbus i think?
20:06:33 <frg_Away> eharmonic might be and what is the problem?
20:06:42 <eharmonic> no it requires glibc-2.12 exactly i only have 2.11.3 or 2.12.2
20:07:31 <eharmonic> i have 2.49.3 running on a debian system that is to much like firefox
20:07:58 <frg_Away> might be all ancient releases. 2.53.8.1 is current.
20:08:19 <eharmonic> 2.53.. is firefox
20:08:53 <IanN_Away> nah
20:09:37 <frg_Away> 2.53 is SeaMonkey 2.53
20:12:06 <eharmonic> the seamonkey-source-2.49.3 installs as firefox-52.7.3   so the seamonkey-2.53 must be firefox
20:12:48 <frg_Away> eharmonic. Yes it is Firefox. We just told no one. Please keep the secret!
20:13:33 <IanN_Away> eharmonic: where did you get seamonkey-source-2.49.3 from?
20:13:49 <eharmonic> the seamonley-2.48 prebuilt errors on start with libpthread compiled with 2.11.3 but needs 2.12   problem all glibc and eglibc are 2.12.2
20:14:06 <eharmonic> from the seamonkey site
20:16:37 <IanN_Away> eharmonic: I've just looked at http://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/releases/2.49.3/source/seamonkey-2.49.3.source.tar.xz and it expands to seamonkey-2.49.3
20:18:04 <IanN_Away> eharmonic: but unless you specify the correct build parameters it won't build SeaMonkey
20:22:50 <eharmonic> you might be rebranding it as seamonkey compiled with same mozconfig as with 2.46 it comes out as firefox
20:23:42 <eharmonic> i just soleved the libpthread.h issue by 'borrowing' from eglibc-2.12
20:24:52 <eharmonic> the freetype2 versioning thing took me a while to figure out (no freetype2 backend in cairo - when it was there) by editing the old.configure and changing 6.1.0 to 2.9.`
20:25:47 <eharmonic> looks like i might have a 2.48 and then i can tell you for sure if it is seamonkey or firefox :)
20:26:09 <IanN_Away> 2.53.8.1 is SeaMonkey
20:26:49 <IanN_Away> as are all the 2.53.x releases
20:26:52 <eharmonic> it even has the firefox rounded corners - is this a rose by anyother name is a goose?
20:27:18 <IanN_Away> eharmonic: rounded corners on the windows?
20:27:23 <eharmonic> yes
20:27:36 <IanN_Away> eharmonic: that would probably be gtk3
20:27:47 <eharmonic> i don't have gtk3
20:27:57 <eharmonic> oh wait i do on the debian
20:29:06 <eharmonic> i'm excited i have been working on compiling 2.48 for 2 days and finally getting a full compile ...
20:29:48 <eharmonic> finally bit the dust and installed libx11-xcb
22:36:50 <njsg> there is a shared codebase, but it really isn't firefox and isn't thunderbird
22:37:15 <njsg> the official builds require dbus (possibly indirectly?) but it's possible to use it without dbus
22:37:28 <njsg> well, s/use/compile/
22:49:25 <frg_Away> ac_add_options --disable-dbus
22:51:18 <frg_Away> Might need  ac_add_options --disable-necko-wifi then too
23:45:35 <eharmonic> got a yasm out of memory ???  i have to reboot to free up something? if i get it to compile i'll come back
