I found that taking the tarball from seamonkey-project.org is dead easy. Just unpack it in /opt and start /opt/seamonkey/seamonkey. No installation needed. You can have a look at the seamonkey-project.org site now and then to see if a new version is available, but you can also follow www.seamonkey-project.org/news via RSS, so you get notified when a new version is available. Then just delete /opt/seamonkey and put the new version there. ( RSS link: https://www.seamonkey-project.org/news-atom )
