   OpenSUSE has Seamonkey in two repositories, the main Update repository   
   and the Mozilla Test repository.  This is about 42.3 Leap by the way.   
   The level I'm running here - 2.53.8.1 - is the last one which made the   
   Update repository, although the Mozilla Test repository gets all of the   
   release versions and - it seems - at least some of the beta versions.   
      
   Today I asked the maintainer if he could update the version in "Update"   
   to a more recent released level, and this was his reply.   
      
   > I'm afraid there's nothing I can do -- I've been submitting the new versions   
   as soon as they've been released, but they've all been stuck in legal review.    
   I and other packagers have been occasionally nudging the lawyers but we never   
   hear back from    
   them.   
      
   Does anyone know why a new Seamonkey level requires "legal review", in   
   particular when this level is freely available in another repository anyway.   
   When Tristan refers to "other packagers", that reads as though other   
   products are also affected.  What the F is going on here?  Are the   
   lawyers getting involved in things which do not concern them?
