Ah, I gave up too soon. I've now got a build that works with the official Seamonkey binaries.

This is wonderful thank you. However, I encountered some bugs on Windows version of it. I'm not sure if they are resolvable or not, but in case you are interested here are the error codes:
Error: Failed to apply default alarm settings to task: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIPrefBranch.getIntPref]" nsresult: "0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://calendar/content/calendar-item-editing.js :: setDefaultAlarmValues :: line 255" data: no]
Source File: chrome://calendar/content/calendar-item-editing.js
Line: 274
Error: self has no properties
Source File: chrome://calendar/content/calendar-event-dialog.js
Line: 125
Error: calRecurrenceRule is not defined
Source File: chrome://calendar/content/calendar-recurrence-dialog.js
Line: 235
Basically, I suspect the errors arose from my attempt to change the default recurrence of a task. That is, when you add a new task, check the repeat box, and proceed to go to set the pattern, the dialogue box opens but you cannot get it to apply the settings. Pressing the ok button does nothing, leaving the only option to be cancel and thus use the default repeat pattern. Furthermore, alarms do not seem to popup.
Also, unfortunately the Calendar installs throughout the program and is not profile specific. Anyway to resolve that? Further, can the calendar be set to open in Tabs rather than windows?

re: the calRecurrenceRule - that's not a file that I touched in my changes. This looks like a generic bug in the calendar code. I've filed a bug for it, #372308. I can supply the patch for it easily enough. (Should probably search first; it's possible that someone else has reported it already. I haven't checked bugzilla, just did a quick look at the code and saw that the function used to be there but disappeared after a "merge"...)
As for the remaining questions - I've only done enough work to restore its original behavior, the way it worked before the Calendar project guys decided to abandon it. I don't have time to implement new features. I think that would be a mistake anyway; new development effort should go into Lightning. So aside from fixing little bugs like that calRecurrenceRule, I'm not going to make any other changes.

Yeah I found this in Bugzilla, which shows there being a patch, of course, I haven't a clue as to how to implement it.

Sounds fair. Thanks for what you've done.

I've updated both the Windows and Linux images with the patch from Bug 370425. You can download and reinstall the xpi to get the fix.

By the way, for anybody brave enough to run Seamonkey nightly builds, I've also uploaded a Linux build that works with the Seamonkey trunk nightlies. This isn't for Suiterunner. I still haven't digested all the details of the new chrome.manifest file...
Which is too bad, because it works pretty well with Suiterunner...

I tried the Linux xpi on SeaMonkey 1.1.1 in Vector Linux. Installed while running SeaMonkey as root (obviously) and it works great as such, however when testing as a normal user, I get the infamous grey error bar at the bottom with some Calendar message (hmm... just realized I forgot to copy it down).
SM (usually latest stable) on Linux Mint 19 x86_64.

Hm, I've been running it as my own userid, never installed as root. Let us know what the error message says...

I tried doing it the simple way and it doesn't work although it certainly installs. You might want to request it in:
Post Extension Thread
Someone there with more knowledge will tell you if it's possible to get it compatible with SM or if it relies on toolkit features not yet available in SM.
PS: Do checkout Multizilla which in addition to giving a bunch of very useful features has a Sage like RSS reader which works from the sidebar.

I've uploaded my cleaned up set of patches to bugzilla.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=371830
Also refreshed the packages on my web site. (Just a few fixes to the Event editing dialog and to the Event Emailing command.)
If anyone does a build for Windows/SM1.5 regular or Suiterunner, you can send it to me and I'll add it to my web site.
