The answer to that question may be
/var/lib/app-info/icons/ubuntu-xenial-main/64x64, but I got a lot of
hits when I opened File Manager and did a search for the term icons.
Now how would I copy my SeaMonkey icon to
/var/lib/app-info/icons/ubuntu-xenial-main/64x64? I'm going to
have to
refresh my sudo terminal foo. sudo cp blah, blah, > blah, blah, I
think.
Not where is it on my system. Just two locations, one under my profil
sudo find / -name seamonkey.png
find: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied
/home/jonathan/.local/share/icons/seamonkey.png
/opt/seamonkey/chrome/icons/default/seamonkey.png
and my launcher shortcut lists the icon simply:
grep -i icon
/home/jonathan/.local/share/applications/seamonkey.desktop
Icon=seamonkey.png
And I get the SeaMonkey icon in the ALT+TAB screen. Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Did you install SeaMonkey from a repo, or like myself and John E (the
OP) from a Mozilla tarball?
I'm sure if John E added the Ubuntuzilla repo his problem would be
solved. I install the Nightly builds and as far I am concerned, don't
really care. Just trying to solve his problem.
I did install an earlier version of SM from an Ubuntuzilla repo a
couple of years ago, but deliberately avoided doing that on my upgrade
to SM2.40 this time because...
a) it was after that earlier Ubuntuzilla version that I first lost my
SM icon on alt-tab and started getting a "?" instead
and more importantly...
b) That Ubuntuzilla version would not upgrade automatically, and when
I tried a manual upgrade I ran into the XPCOMGlue Load errors that we
discussed and fixed on a seperate thread here last month.
If you installed the Contributed build 64-bit version of SeaMonkey from
<http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/#2.40> it doesn't update
automatically either.
You will have to download the tarball and repeat the installation
process for each update.
As an experiment I installed the Ubuntuzilla repo and SeaMonkey 2.40.
When that version is open the SeaMonkey icon is in the launcher and
alt+tab. Still no icon for my Nightly version, but it's not needed here.
Appreciate the info about upgrading. It's largely history now, but the
annoying problem I had after my Ubuntuzilla installation of v2.33 in
June 2015 was that it would regularly give me an update failed notice: See
http://img.webme.com/pic/z/zzjohn/SMupdate_fail.jpg
That led me to believe v2.33 was supposed to have an auto update
facility, but my use of the non-standard Ubutuzilla installation had
somehow disabled it.
To avoid that problem in future, I thought I'd be better downloading the
more official Linux GTK2, English v2.40 from
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/
So was my thinking wrong? Is there a version of 2.40 somewhere that
does automatically upgrade?
