I've been using galeon as my browser for a while and have gotten used to it's session features and smart bookmarks. I've tried to move to Mozilla, but can't import my bookmarks and it doesn't seem to have sessions. I've tried building Galeon 1.3, but it keeps crashing when I try to print or open the preferences dialog.
Is there a better solution? Anyone? Anyone?

Download and install his rpm for galeon-1.3.7. It just works for me.
Or if you're apt-savvy, just add his repository to your sources.list.

I got the same results with this RPM as I did with the one I built from the .spec file in the original sources (i.e. crashes on printing and opening preferences dialog).

I can't help but to (again) plug my packages at http://lisas.de/~nils/redhat/severn/... -- these work for me (no crashes on either printing or preferences). If they won't work with you, you should check whether the dependencies are current, check your versions of (for starters):
glib2 glibc gtk2 libstdc++ mozilla
and compare them against what's in Rawhide.

I still get crashes on printing and preferences. Can you help?
I've upgraded to the following from Rawhide:
cpp-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm gcc-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm gcc-c++-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm gcc-g77-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm gcc-java-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm glibc-2.3.2-71.i686.rpm glibc-common-2.3.2-71.i386.rpm libf2c-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm libgcc-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm libgcj-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm libgcj-devel-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm libstdc++-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm libstdc++-devel-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm tzdata-2003a-2.noarch.rpm
glib2, gtk2 and mozilla currently in Rawhide are the same as those in severn:
glib2-2.2.2-1 gtk2-2.2.2-2.1 mozilla-1.4-12

Check your $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME environment variable. I was having all sorts of problems with galeon crashes when I had that variable set incorrectly.

Originally it was not set except in the script /usr/bin/galeon. I tried setting it in a terminal and adding an echo line in /usr/bin/galeon for verification, but no improvement.

cpp-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm gcc-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm gcc-c++-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm gcc-g77-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm gcc-java-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm
cpp and gcc is totally irrelevanr except if you want to compile it for yourself (for simplicity reasons I'll assume you use one of the binary packages that already "should work").
glibc-2.3.2-71.i686.rpm glibc-common-2.3.2-71.i386.rpm libf2c-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm
same goes for libf2c
libgcc-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm libgcj-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm libgcj-devel-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm libstdc++-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm libstdc++-devel-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm
or -devel packages...
tzdata-2003a-2.noarch.rpm
glib2, gtk2 and mozilla currently in Rawhide are the same as those in severn:
glib2-2.2.2-1 gtk2-2.2.2-2.1 mozilla-1.4-12
these were the same here. I just updated a lot of packages, but I'll provide all "direct" dependencies of galeons as of now as well. Please compare with what you have:
atk-1.3.5-1 bash-2.05b-26.1 compat-glibc-6.2-2.1.3.2 eel2-2.3.9-1 gail-1.3.5-3 GConf2-2.3.3-2 glib2-2.2.3-1.1 glibc-2.3.2-78 gnome-vfs2-2.3.8-1 gtk2-2.2.3-1.1 libart_lgpl-2.3.14-1 libbonobo-2.3.6-2 libbonoboui-2.3.6-2 libgcc-3.3.1-2 libglade2-2.0.1-4 libgnome-2.3.7-2 libgnomecanvas-2.3.6-1 libgnomeui-2.3.6-2 libstdc++-3.3.1-2 libxml2-2.5.10-4 linc-1.0.3-2 mozilla-1.4-12 mozilla-nspr-1.4-12 nautilus-2.3.9-1 ORBit2-2.7.5-5 pango-1.2.5-1.1 popt-1.8.1-0.30 scrollkeeper-0.3.12-1 XFree86-libs-4.3.0-22.1 zlib-1.1.4-10
Just an idea: do you have any (Mozilla) plugins installed? Please remove them and check whether it works then -- Sometimes Galeon seems to have problems with certain plugins where Mozilla works flawlessly.
Nils
There was something on my old configurations that was causing problems. I moved my old .galeon directory and copied my bookmarks, cookies and prefs. Now things work on vanilla severn with your galeon .rpm.
If I get around to it, I'll try and troubleshoot some more and send a bug report upstream.

According to http://galeon.sourceforge.net/links/interview_2003-07.php galeon2 will be release before the end of summer. It's obvious galeon2 wont make it in Cambridge but expect a package in fedora (http://www.fedora.us/) [almost] as soon as it is released. Maybe even before the final release if cvs snapshots and/or milestones proove to be quite stable enough to be usable - and i dont think they are actually as galeon 1.3.7 keeps crashing on startup with me.

I have been using galeon 1.3.7 for several weeks now. No crashes, no errors, no problems at all.
[imoq@imoqland imoq]$ rpm -q galeon galeon-1.3.7-0.dag.rh90
FWIW.
