I saw the latest update announcements on the announce list, so I ran
"yum check-update" and did not see seamonkey in the list. Which I
guess makes sense, since it's a name change from mozilla. However,
devhelp is in the list, and "yum update devhelp" pulls in seamonkey as
a dependency.
This seems like a sort of backdoor way to get seamonkey onto the
system. Did these packages really come from the upstream this way?
What if I had not had devhelp installed? Do I need to replace mozilla
or not?
Aside to Dag: The galeon package from rpmforge has an version
dependency on the specific mozilla package that's being replaced by
seamonkey (rather than a greater-or-equal dependency), so it's not
presently possible to install both seamonkey and galeon with yum.

Address book, preferences, mail & news, bookmarks, everything made the
trip. The only vestige of mozilla is the homemade desktop shortcut to
/usr/bin/mozilla which still works with SeaMonkey. Go figure.
