You are replying to the sig (after the -- ) - please reply only in the

Not at all. I have SeaMonkey on Dapper, Edgy, and Feisty. If you
followed the instructions above SeaMonkey *should* have installed just
fine.

"I have a Feisty Ubuntu live CD install with Kubuntu-desktop installed."
I'm assuming that you have a fully installed kunbutu system... Have you
updated the system since you installed from the live CD ala
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
?

Regarding your link on Mozilla forums:

I have the following libstdc's installed"
- libstdc++5 version 1:3.3.6-15ubuntu1
- libstdc++6 version 4.1.2-0ubuntu4
- libstdc++6-4.0-dev version 4.0.3-4
- libstdc++6-4.1-dev version 4.1.2-0ubuntu4

usr/lib/debug/libstdc++.so.6.0.8 comes from the libstdc++6 package so
that should be fine. Can you also install libstdc++5 (use Synaptic
please) and see if that corrects your problem?

I have a Feisty test server that I will remove libstdc++5 from and leave
libstdc++6, and then install SM to see if I can reproduce the error.
