Due to this no (Linux) distributions I am aware of ship Seamonkey 1.1 with translations (Debian does ship 1.0, there it was possible with some ugly sed magic). It would be very nice if seamonkey supported "-install-global-extension" command line argument similarly to firefox, or something functionally equivalent. Reproducible: Always

You don't need a specialized tool, just unzip the extension in appdir/extensions/_extension-id_
(In reply to comment #2) > You don't need a specialized tool, just unzip the extension in > appdir/extensions/_extension-id_ This would work for Firefox. Would it also work for Seamonkey browser?
