lets explain:
www-client/mozilla-launcher-1.44
has just been updated ...
mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-1.0.6-r2 ... emerge want to downgrade because I
am already using the r3 patch from http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99844
which is no yet available in portage ...

ff: not the problem ... binaries do not move around ...

I start TB in console after putting keys:
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "firefox");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "firefox");
in .thunderbird/default/uieiei465iduouo.slt/prefs.js

and in the console, I get the message:
/usr/libexec/mozilla-launcher: can't find the browser :-(

-1- TB searches in a script, instead of scanning its internal registery,

-2- the script (which I just updated) is not able to find FF ... which is
installed from sources, no from -bin.

Did you include the wrong bug with the patch? There is no patch on that bug to
be included.

sorry, I was in fact thinking about
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99182#c19 ... not 99844

You're currently running firefox-1.0.2 on this machine.  No wonder it's not
working.  Please update to the current stable version and re-open if there's
still a problem.

right ... after update it works.
