Yes. I was simply answering the question of why the difference |
| 19 |
between mozilla and seamonkey, explaining that seamonkey is replacing |
| 20 |
mozilla, both the use flag and the app. For apps that can use firefox as |
| 21 |
well, unless the Gentoo dev maintaining a specific app decided to change |
| 22 |
the default for some reason, the new rules for choosing between firefox |
| 23 |
and seamonkey should be directly parallel to the old ones for choosing |
| 24 |
between firefox and mozilla. |
