After reading http://lists.debian.org/debian-doc/2009/02/msg00411.html and
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=511477 the current status of
IceApe is about as clear as Mud. It refused to install via apt-get, synaptic,
and gnome-app-insta. I did get xulrunner-dev installed, but that didn't seem
to accomplish anything - I don't see it in the KDE menu system. Bash can't
find xulrunner or xulrunner-bin in the path. Is there a deb from which IceApe
can be installed into Lenny? I know I can install the seamonkey from the
SeaMonkey Project's tarball. Is that what most other Lenny users are doing?

A package called iceape-browser is available in Lenny. It provides a
browser and a simple composer. I use it for the latter only.

Try "aptitude show iceape-browser" or "apt-cache showpkg iceape-browser".

I only see iceape-dev and iceape-dev-bin. Where did you install that one
from?

- From the looks of packages.debian.org, it's only avaliable for Etch. Try
using dpkg to install
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/i/iceape/iceape-browser_1.0.13~pre080614i-0etch1_i386.deb.
