In recent sm trunk nightlies (specifically, 2006-10-06), on startup, my Javascript console shows the following: Failed to load XPCOM component: E:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\components\myspell\en-US.aff Failed to load XPCOM component: E:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\components\myspell\en-US.dic Failed to load XPCOM component: E:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\components\fullsoft.dll Failed to load XPCOM component: E:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\components\talkback.cnt Failed to load XPCOM component: E:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\components\talkback.exe Failed to load XPCOM component: E:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\components\talkback-l10n.ini Failed to load XPCOM component: E:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\components\BrandRes.dll and so on and so forth (if the full list is important let me know). sm's functionality seems fine otherwise (e.g. spelling works). Highly annoying.

This happens because those files are in the components directory, but aren't XPCOM components. When did this start happening? I can't see any recent changes that should have affected this (assuming you meant 2006-01-06 and not 2006-10-06).

*** Bug 330894 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I've resummarized. "If a file in a newly-downloaded build is missing or corrupted, file the bug in this component." -> Component: Build Config

I'm sure this is a minor issue, but it just gets on my nerves when debugging...

I have MailNews loading on startup btw, this may not happen when only the browser loads. Also, it does not happen at all with a clean profile.

This should be fixed in trunk/1.8branch builds with the patch from bug 216382. And it is a dup of some older bug, IIRC.

Actually, it happens each time <compreg.dat> is (re)built: *SM file is in <\components> application directory *TB file is in each profile directory (You can (safely) trigger it by manually deleting the file.)

I don't remember when SM & TB stopped using Talkback on 1.9 Trunk; but that (part too) is WorksForMe now.
