Wicknix has updated the old SpiderWeb with the latest UXP. He changed the name, icons, etc for a fresh look and feel.

Download: sealion-32.1.1.linux-powerpc-gtk2.tar.bz2

Further information: https://github.com/wicknix/SeaLion

FYI: SeaLion needs the libjpeg.so.8. This lib isn't available on new Debian based distributions (MintPPC, Debian Sid, etc). I uploaded it.

Download: libjpeg.so.8

Please copy it to /lib/powerpc-linux-gnu as root. After that run the command ldconfig for adding the new lib to the library cache. Then close the terminal and try to start SeaLion again.

Wicknix has released SeaLion 32.2.0.

This is a fantastic browser because of a fast and great old user interface with the latest Goanna layout and rendering engine.

Wow... GMX mail works now with it, and even in the native mode!!! I did not anymore believe that would be possible on PPC Linux. My hat is off for Wicknix!-)

Thank you for informing us .

Screenshot of SeaLion 32.2.0:

SealLion does not run in Fienix6. There seems to be missing a library:

PCOMGlueLoad error for file /media/Linux-NTFS/sealion/libxul.so:
libffi.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Couldn't load XPCOM.

It could be, that you have to install some packages for example libffi7 or libffi8 for using SeaLion. Maybe you need a symbolic link from libffi.so.X for example “libffi.so.8" to "libffi.so.7". Please create this symbolic link with the following command:

ln -s /usr/lib/powerpc-linux-gnu/libffi.so.8 /usr/lib/powerpc-linux-gnu/libffi.so.7

The libffi8 was already installed. After creating the symbolic link, I got this error:

~$ '/media/Linux-NTFS/sealion/sealion'
XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /media/Linux-NTFS/sealion/libxul.so:
/lib/powerpc-linux-gnu/libffi.so.7: version `LIBFFI_CLOSURE_7.0' not found (required by /media/Linux-NTFS/sealion/libxul.so)
Couldn't load XPCOM.

Fienix depots did not seem to have that LIBFFI_CLOSURE....
