Yes, Thank You, I know that, so I must wonder why it is offered for 
install via Ubuntu Repos. I may misunderstand the extent of those repos., 
via Synaptic or the Ubuntu Software Cntr.

Again, Yes, Thank You. I know of Ubuntuzilla, used it for Seamonkey since 
12.04LTS issed; the Repos offer Seamonkey, but it is not loaded there. A 
defect.
