I will have to stop using it someday, and I won't bother with an
overlay.  But last time I tried seamonkey it was unstable unreliable
junk.  What I want to understand is why seamonkey and mozilla can't
coexist.  They have different names, but even if they didn't, there
are slots for apache and apache2, as many different kernels as you
could possibly want, and ... mozilla and seamonkey conflict with each
other.  Why?
