What happened to IceApe (aka SeaMonkey)?
Ant
I noticed Debian's Lenny doesn't have IceApe packages. What happened to
it? I use this Web browser suite. Is there a Debian package of it? :(
Thank you in advance. :)

the anger began to ferment." --John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath

You need to ask Debian. IceApe is a Debian project that ships a
substantially modified version of our software, and we neither have
control over it nor want control over it. Only the Debian people can
know what's up with that package.
The real SeaMonkey is available for download at
http://www.seamonkey-projct.org/

Hi all,
As it took some time for me to decide the fate of Iceape, and mails
about it started gathering, here are my current plans for Iceape.
As I can't commit to follow the seamonkey 1.1 branch mainly because
of time constraints, except if some people stand up to give a hand,
which has happened despite several calls for help, Iceape 1.1.x, which
wasn't shipped in Lenny because we couldn't commit to support it for
security, won't be restored to unstable.
My current plan, which might take some time, is to first get xulrunner
1.9.1 in experimental, and then get iceape 2.0 alphas, or betas built
against it. Progression to unstable will depend on how xulrunner
reverse dependencies can deal with 1.9.1.
Cheers,
Mike

So, that means v1.1 for Debian is currently dead.
I tried to install SeaMonkey (SM) from mozilla.org, but am having
problems getting my plugins and Adblock Plus v1.0.1 (from apt-get
command; works fine in IceWeasel, but not showing up in SM).
Are there any documents on how to migrate over and make them work SM
v1.1.14 correctly? :(
Thank you in advance. :)

Concerning plugins: Locate IceWeasel's plugins directory (e.g. find /usr
-type d -name plugins) and copy its contents preserving symlinks (e.g.
cp -p /usr/share/iceweasel/plugins/* /path/to/seamonkey/plugins).
Concerning Adblock Plus: I wonder where you got v1.0.1 from. Lenny
contains v0.7.5.5 (cf. <http://packages.debian.org/lenny/adblock-plus>).
Anyway, that package won't help you installing the extension in the
original SeaMonkey. Simply install it from
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/1865>.

Is it me or I cannot find SM's icon in the installed directory?
seamonkey-installer's README said:
To hook up SeaMonkey complete with icon to the GNOME Panel, follow these
steps:
1. Click the GNOME Main Menu button, open the Panel menu, and then open
the Add to Panel submenu and choose Launcher.
2. Right-click the icon for SeaMonkey on the Panel and enter the
following command:
directory_name./seamonkey
where directory_name is the name of the directory you downloaded
SeaMonkey to. For example, the default directory that SeaMonkey suggests
is /usr/local/seamonkey.
3. Type in a name for the icon, and type in a comment if you wish.
4. Click the icon button and type in the following as the icon's location:
directory_name/icons/mozicon50.xpm
where directory name is the directory where you installed SeaMonkey. For
example, the default directory is /usr/local/seamonkey/icons/mozicon50.xpm.

I only looked at the German version but I think the README is wrong. I
found icons under chrome/icons/default, default*.xpm and seamonkey.png.

The location is right but the filename is not. ;-) I added a comment to
