I found an explanation in the source of mozilla-launcher : In which_browser() function, the first "case" find thunderbird, so it's ok, MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME is set to "/usr/lib/MozillaThunderbird". However, the second "case" isn't skipped, so MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME is then set to "/opt/thunderbird", which is bad, as I have the compiled Thunderbird, and not the binary one... The second case sould be skipped if the first one finds the browser. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge net-mail/mozilla-thunderbird 2. emerge mozilla-launcher 3. thunderbird Actual Results: /usr/bin/thunderbird: can't find the browser :-( Expected Results: Thunderbird should run ! r.brown@lawson-his.co.uk 2004-05-26 02:22:51 0000 It's only a one line patch to mozilla-launcher to fix this. $zero is still thunderbird, as you have the compiled version installed, but the second case statement was running asn still matching thunderbird, instead of thunderbird-bin --- mozilla-launcher.old 2004-05-26 10:16:51.207447872 +0100 +++ mozilla-launcher 2004-05-26 10:17:10.622496336 +0100 @@ -153,7 +153,7 @@ prefs=$HOME/.mozilla ;; - *thunderbird) + *thunderbird-bin) export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME="/opt/thunderbird" remote=$MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/mozilla-xremote-client mozbin=$MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/thunderbird-bin agriffis@gentoo.org 2004-05-26 09:34:36 0000 Thanks for the detailed analysis!
