SeaMonkey_e_V
Press release.
-
SeaMonkey_e_V
We are happy to announce that user Loglandia kept his promise (see
ircbot.comm-central.org:8080/seamonkey/20230326#c210738) and found an opportunity to donate $1,000,000 to the project!
-
SeaMonkey_e_V
Man power is what we have been missing all these years. The funds received will be immediately used to increase the number of developers and accelerate development.
-
SeaMonkey_e_V
In addition to preserving the traditional spirit of SeaMonkey, we plan to provide other traditional interfaces, including all the popular in previous versions of Firefox and Thunderbird, as well as support for all the extensions that have ever existed. The user will be able to easily switch the desired look and feel without restarting the program.
-
SeaMonkey_e_V
Additionally, full emulation of the Windows XP environment will be implemented inside the browser itself (this is a mandatory requirement of the sponsor).
-
SeaMonkey_e_V
We establish a monthly award to the most diligent developer. The first award goes to Bella the cat, as the developer who spends the most time directly at (on) computer. Meow!
-
SeaMonkey_e_V
We wish you success and further achievements in the framework of our great project!

gaston
having pretty bad crashes with 2.53.16 that didnt happen with 2.53.15, loading seamonkey-project.org is enough to trigger it ..
pastebitch.com/WLLY
-
gaston
does it ring a bell to anyone ? i've perused the commits between .15 and .16 and havent spotted anything obvious
-
gaston
that's on openbsd trying to update the port
-
gaston
i think it crashes as soon as it hits some js
-
gaston
because viewing some plain html pages doesnt crash
-
tomman
2.53.16 on board
-
tomman
Flashblocks still survives... maimed, but it still blocks videos~
-
tomman
pdf.js works
-
tomman
...unfortunately Redirector died
-
tomman
let's figure out why
-
tomman
settings page do load, but all my rules are missing
-
tomman
none of the buttons do anything
-
tomman
Error: TypeError: Cc[className] is undefined
-
tomman
Archivo fuente: chrome://redirector/content/js/xpcom.js
-
tomman
LĂnea: 18
-
tomman
where Cc = Components.classes;
-
tomman
wonder what broke in return Cc[className].getService(Ci[interfaceName]); then
-
tomman
time to switch to Ye Olde Dell
-
tomman
got a warning about a deprecated for-each loop too
-
njsg
what version of redirector? Is that the same extension (Well, an older release, I suppose?) at
github.com/einaregilsson/Redirector ?
-
tomman
njsg: it was the patched version of 2.9.3 (the last one compatible with XUL browsers?) I'm using
-
tomman
"The Components object is deprecated and will be removed soon"
-
tomman
what is the replacement then?
-
tomman
Components.interfaces do work, but Components.classes return null
-
tomman
bugzilla.mozilla.org/799961 yeah, a 11 year old bug ticket is hardly useful
-
tomman
wait, Flashblock also uses Components.classes, but that DOES work
-
tomman
of course the documentation on the Components object is gone, yay Mozilla
-
tomman
so close, yet so far...
-
tomman
only Redirector is failing, and with this error that should have killed all my addons
-
tomman
tried on my other setup with all addons disabled, then reenabled Redirector: same issue
-
printed__
hi! I'm using OpenSUSE with the codecs from opi and I'm trying to open videos in seamonkey, but youtube crashes and frontends for it give me media format errors
-
printed__
is there a fix?
-
tomman
printed__: what version of SeaMonkey?
-
tomman
IIRC SeaMonkey brings its own codecs, but I'm not 100% sure
-
printed__
2.53.15
-
printed__
from the OpenSUSE repository
-
tomman
do they repack the upstream release, or are those distro-specific builds?
-
frg_Away
printed__ check if it has been compiled with rust 1.67.1. If yes use the official version until thex fix it or 2.53.16 appears.
-
printed__
the official version also has the same issue
-
IsambardPrince
It's kind of hard to test pre-release versions of SeaMonkey for bugs on Linux.
-
IsambardPrince
At least Fedora.
-
printed__
oh wow it works now that I removed my ~/.mozilla folder
-
IsambardPrince
If you want to, you have to know to go grab a tarball and bother to do it.
-
printed__
sorry for wasting your time
-
printed__
D:
-
IsambardPrince
And it won't have the same patch series as Fedora's will.
-
printed__
so yep it's an issue with the seamonkey version provided by the opensuse repo
-
printed__
if I open the opensuse one again it'll crash again
-
tomman
printed__: what you did was to clear your profile
-
printed__
I just deleted the .mozilla folder
-
printed__
yes
-
frg_Away
check about:buildconfig. If it prints rust 1.67.0 or higher 2.53.15 is broken.
-
printed__
yep
-
printed__
"/usr/bin/rustc 1.68.0"
-
frg_Away
Worked around in 2.53.16 and fixed in 2.53.17b1pre+
-
printed__
alright, thanks
-
tomman
paste.debian.net/1276015 the offending file for Redirector
-
tomman
if I try to use Components.classes on a console, I do get two errors: one saying that Components is deprecated, and another that says that Components.classes is undefined
-
tomman
but then, apparently Components.classes isn't supposed to be accessible everywhere?
-
tomman
I'm running out of clues here
-
frg_Away
tomman var LocaleService = Service("@mozilla.org/intl/nslocaleservice;1", "nsILocaleService");
-
frg_Away
nsILocaleService is gone
-
frg_Away
and/or nsIStringBundleService
-
frg_Away
nsIStringBundleService is still there
-
gaston
frg_Away: any luck getting something from such a crash trace ?
pastebitch.com/WLLY doesnt happen with .15; happens with .16 opening seamonkey-project.org
-
tomman
frg_Away: oh, so it was a red herring (again, I'm not well versed in addon dev)
-
frg_Away
-
tomman
what's the replacement for nsILocaleService then? (Redirector uses that for its UI)
-
frg_Away
gaston it looks like
Bug 1448189 but this is in for ages. Which compiler?
-
gaston
clang 13
-
gaston
with the same toolchain .15 runs fine
-
printed__
is there a difference between the seamonkey and seamonkey-bin binaries that are in the tarball?
-
tomman
frg_Away: I commented out the LocaleService definition, and indeed that's the culprit
-
tomman
was already going insane with the "Components.classes is undefined", but then I'm not supposed to debug addon code from a dev console :D
-
frg_Away
tomman yeah we should probably better document what removals are backported but needs time and ... well you know sigh.
-
tomman
Redirector only has an English UI anyway
-
tomman
frg_Away: that should also serve me as a lesson to actually try the betas! :D
-
tomman
-
tomman
apparently I could get away by just... killing it (and remove the extra param to createBundle)
-
tomman
OK, lemme try that
-
tomman
...yep, that worked!
-
tomman
(it fallbacks to en-US anyway, which is the only bundled locale)
-
tomman
frg_Away: thanks for pointing me to the correct direction~
-
frg_Away
gaston sorry don't have an answer. Don't know FreeBSD. I will check if I can put later skia code in 2.53.17 in case this is the problem.
-
tomman
Hmmm, Redirector only broke away with XUL starting with 3.1.0 - 3.0.6 should be "safe" to use on our browsers
-
tomman
will try it
-
tomman
-
tomman
(SHA256SUM is d2869e4b72c9b95dbc3a927c265db3cdd648c5136f47a93923c36df258fbe465, which matches the one at
web.archive.org/web/20180730224356/…S/firefox/addon/redirector/versions )
-
tomman
it's a rainy day outside, so what the hell, I'm going to tinker with more addons today
-
IsambardPrince
Clang is probably one of the most unfortunate things to ever happen. Not only does it fake compatibility with enhanced security hardening features of GCC, Clang binaries also tend to cause debuggers to crash and offer to debug themselves.
-
IsambardPrince
Which is terrific considering you didn't set out to debug the debugger, it's probably not the debugger's fault, and even if you agree to continue it'll probably spew things so confusing you don't know what happened, where, or in the program or the debugger, then crash again and offer to debug that.
-
IsambardPrince
So naturally Mozilla went there.
-
gaston
frg_Away: that's openbsd but i doubt it can be os-specific
-
frg_Away
gaston a sorry you are right.
-
gaston
that's strange because using 2.53.15 i cant crash it
-
frg_Away
gaston lots of new stuff in 2.53.16 so it might need a fix which was omitted. Happens now and the with thy myriad Linux distributions and nix derivates unfortunately. Usually just need to track down the right mozilla fix.
-
gaston
frg_Away: i'll have a look at the git log but i didnt see anything obvjous in
gitlab.com/seamonkey-project/seamon…y-2.53-comm/-/commits/2_53_16_final
-
WG9s
gaston: does it crash using latest 2.53.17b1pre build from here
wg9s.com/comm-253 ?
-
WG9s
might be somethig we neglected to include in th 2.53.16 final that is already known fi
-
gaston
WG9s: you dont provide builds for openbsd ;)
-
gaston
but if you have an idea of a possible commit i can backport or cherrypick any patch you can throw at me
-
njsg
there are also source tarballs for b1pre, right? (in case that is helpful)
-
WG9s
oh there is source at
ftp.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/nightly/latest-253-source if you have the facility to build your own.
-
gaston
will try that one :)
-
gaston
mozbuild.configure.options.InvalidOptionError: Unknown option: --with-system-hunspell
-
gaston
some options were dropped recently ?
-
gaston
i dont have issues with that option in .16
-
WG9s
hmm i ahve no idea. I am really only they guy who does nightly builds of latest 2.53.17b1pre adn drops the latest source. I am not involved in most of the changes as to what support is being dropped etc.
-
gaston
guess i'll look at git log -p between that last tags
-
IsambardPrince
<frg_Away> gaston lots of new stuff in 2.53.16 so it might need a fix which was omitted. Happens now and the with thy myriad Linux distributions and nix derivates unfortunately. Usually just need to track down the right mozilla fix.
-
IsambardPrince
The release notes didn't mention anything really big going on.
-
frg_Away
IsambardPrince there are usually a 1000 to 2000 backports in these releases. Mostly small stuff which adds up.
-
frg_Away
--with-system-hunspell is no longer supported. Need to add a missing patch. Webex dictionary support broke it and was removed from Firefox becuase of it.
-
frg_Away

frg_Away
Hi CaptainTobin
-
CaptainTobin
hi frg_Away
-
CaptainTobin
what can I do for you dude
-
frg_Away
CaptainTobin nothing. Just said hi :)
-
CaptainTobin
ah good to talk to you again with my files safe and secure and my new storage drives
-
CaptainTobin
including an nvme for the OS
-
CaptainTobin
i spent this week AGAIN transfering files from drive to drive to drive
-
CaptainTobin
heh
-
CaptainTobin
I got too much shit
-
frg_Away
CaptainTobin yes prices for flash are falling like a stone. Even 4TB SSDs are somewhat cheap now.
-
frg_Away
Still use sata for system. I hate gpt partitions for the OS.
-
tomman
HELP
-
tomman
send SSDs now!
-
tomman
huh, are dictionaries broken?
-
tomman
I can rightclick on an empty edit box and select language
-
tomman
what I can't do anymore is to right-click on a spelling error: the context menu comes up without suggestions, and the language lists on it is suspiciously empty
-
frg_Away
tomman not the last time I tested.
-
frg_Away
But only tested mail.
-
tomman
OK, it actually works on Browser too
-
tomman
however it seems to be broken on Chatzilla
-
tomman
wow, I can't even disable "Check Spelling"
-
tomman
Error: NS_ERROR_FAILURE: Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIInlineSpellChecker.getMisspelledWord]
-
tomman
Archivo fuente: resource://gre/modules/InlineSpellChecker.jsm
-
tomman
found a few of those on the error console
-
frg_Away
tomman works here for me in CZ.
-
tomman
I'll try a restart then
-
tomman
...it works again
-
tomman
chalk one to cosmic radiation, again
-
frg_Away
tomman you have the bundled cZ ? 0.16 in case of 2.53.16.
-
tomman
it's 0.16 indeed, I'm not using any separate addon (if it still exists)
-
frg_Away
should be uninstalled then during start but does not always work.
-
frg_Away
just checked with a webext dictionary and laguage switching worked too.
-
frg_Away
but won't rule ot a hickup or two. Brittle stuff and many backports were needed.
