Latest Installer not working

[Rich_li_ny]

I already had SeaMonkey 1.1.2 installed (Per Manual Install Instructions on this forum) but didnt have it listed under Applications > Internet. It worked fine with a launched I created on desktop.

So to try out this script I did this: "bash /home/richie/installseamonkey.sh -remove"

Ok SeaMonkey was removed .. except for the desktop launcher. No biggie.

I then did this to reinstall it hoping that it woudl be reinstalled and would have an icon in the application menu. "bash /home/richie/installseamonkey.sh -install"

this is what I got:

"...The most recent release of SeaMonkey is detected to be 1.1.2. Please make sure this is correct before proceeding. (You can confirm by going to http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/) Is it correct [y/n]? "

So I selected Y ( I know that the latest version and the one I just uninstalled and am attempting to reinstall.
The system runs through the following routine but nothing is ever installed.....:

OK .. So is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Hi
yes, this is a bug indeed!
the thing is, you are using an older release (i know this, because as of a few releases back, we are no longer a shell script, but a python script. :)
this bug has been fixed in the newer releases (the bug is that when apt-get update fails due to some repositories being down, the script exits, because it likes everything to complete successfully. however, it is not really necessary for this step).

so please go to our homepage (http://pykeylogger.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Ubuntuzilla), read the instructions for usage (we use python rather than bash now) and get the newest released version (4.0.2), and it will let you bypass the incomplete apt-get update error and proceed.

please report back on how that worked. :)

edit: and by the way, i'm curious, where did you get that old seamonkey install script, and what made you think it was the 'latest' version?
