SeaMonkey 2.53.17 is out!

Posted on August 4, 2023 by ewong

Hi All,

SeaMonkey 2.53.17 has been released!  Please check out [1] and/or [2] for further information on changes.

Also to note, it has been a long time since I’ve even done the release notes.  Just shows how much one forgets after not doing it for so long.  Heck, even my hg account is disabled. ;/

Best regards,

:ewong

PS: Updates coming up soon.  Instead of having a hiccup with the release, I’m having a hiccup with the updates.  *Thanks Murphy!*

    Awesome! Waiting for internal updater. I hope it doesn’t break my old extensions like PrefBar!

      Updates should be ok now. A stupid mistake on my part.

      The update may have broken Mouse Gestures Suite. 🙁

      Prefbar will break, because nsIPrefBranch2 is gone.

      The latest prefbar-7.1.1-fx+sm.xpi seems to repairable easily though, after fixing content/goprefbar/main.js in prefbar.jar Prefbar seems to work:

      – .getService(Components.interfaces.nsIPrefBranch2);
      + .getService(Components.interfaces.nsIPrefService).getBranch(“”);

      BTW: the latest working GreaseMonkey greasemonkey-3.10.0.1rc3pre-sm.xpi has similar problems (for s while), but is just as easily fixable.

    In future, will it be possible for you to try to develop it for Android as well?

    Seems to have broken Mouse Gestures Suite for me.
    If I reset the add-on to defaults it works briefly but fails after restart.
    Worked fine on .16.
    Same on two linux machines with different o/s. Disappointing, hopefully fixable.

    Update for Mouse Gestures Issue.
    Seems to work ok if I configure it for Middle Button use.
    Prefer right button, but at least I have some functionality at this point.

    No problems. Previous updates had to wait for the internal updates. 😉 Anyways, I got it in macOS Big Sur v11.7.9, 64-bit W10 Pro., and Debian bullseye v11. Boo, it broke my PrefBar ext. 🙁
