*** Bug 1352236 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** seamonkey-2.40-4.fc24 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 24. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-bd24b443a3 After Fedora 23 to Fedora 24 upgrade, in x86_64 release, I cannot use any more the mailer part of seamonkey. With my current account, as soon as I try to open the mailer, seamonkey crashes If I remove my $HOME/.mozilla/seamonkey directory, I can open it, but at the end of creation of a new mail account, mozilla crashes again Other functionalities: web browser or cJohn E. Harboldomposer seams to work normally Contrary to the problem mentioned aboveby John E. Harbold, I do not observe any crash, as long as I just use WEB browser! In the link above https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-bd24b443a3 I cannot sea any downloadable rpm, so how can I try ??? But on the same link, an anonymous has already let a message: "seamonkey-2.40-4.fc24.x86_64 still crashes in mailer part" !!!! So the bug I observed seams always there. I say seams: I cannot try myself because there is no downloadable link for this update !!!! OK I download the update from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=777522 But unfortunately, I confirm the observation by the anonymous on the link above, that seamonkey crashes as soon as seamonkey mailer is open, when You have already an account! Does the problem exist if you downgrade to the F23's package of seamonkey? (Both cases, including clean profile). https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/seamonkey/2.40/2.fc23/x86_64/seamonkey-2.40-2.fc23.x86_64.rpm I downgrade with your suggested package, from the link above:
but its not so obvious, because :
1)
# dnf downgrade seamonkey-2.40-2.fc23.x86_64.rpm
refuse to install it because dependence
libvpx.so.2.0.0 is not installed
(currently only libvpx.so.3.0.0 from libvpx-1.5.0-4.fc24.x86_64 is installed)
2) so I force it with:
# dnf remove seamonkey
# rpm -ivh seamonkey-2.40-2.fc23.x86_64.rpm --nodeps
3) Then, of course, after I launch seamonkey
it stops complaining about lacking libvpx.so.2.0.0
$ seamonkey
XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/lib64/seamonkey/libxul.so:
libvpx.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Couldn't load XPCOM.
4) So I try to install libvpx-1.4.0-6.fc24.x86_64.rpm
downloaded from : https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/libvpx/1.4.0/6.fc24/x86_64/libvpx-1.4.0-6.fc24.x86_64.rpm
to have this lacking lib:
with:
# rpm -ivh libvpx-1.4.0-6.fc24.x86_64.rpm --excludedocs --force
====
THEN
5) I can use seamonkey normally under Fedora 24 !! AND especially seamonkey mail to read all my personnal mail, with my profile under $HOME/.mozilla/seamonkey/
THANKS for the suggestion,
it's better than the intermediate solution I used since 2 day: A virtual machine Fedora 23 running in VirtualBox, just to continue to read my mails !!!!
6) I tried also a clean profile :
-> close seamonkey
-> rename $HOME/.mozilla/seamonkey in $HOME/.mozilla/seamonkey.ref
-> Then restart seamonkey and open seamonkey mailer
I created a new mail account , AND fortunately NO CRASH at the end
of creation !
I was able to use this new account normally to read my mails ,
from my provider.
========
So expecting the definitive solution, I will live like that !
