Description Paul Sinnett 2004-09-15 01:19:53 UTC

the thunderbird build is missing the default component xmlextras. The forumzilla extension requires this component to function.

(It's possible other extensions may require this component, or other components that were recently removed.)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge mozilla-thunderbird
2. Run thunderbird and install forumzilla.xpi
3. Restart thunderbird
4. Check javascript console for errors due to missing components

Actual Results:  
 Error: XMLSerializer is not defined
 Source File: chrome://forumzilla/content/global.js
 Line: 53

 Error: appDirectoryService has no properties
 Source File: chrome://forumzilla/content/FeedService.js
 Line: 285


Expected Results:  
No errors.

This same problem as in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60060 except for
a different component.

To fix, just add "xmlextras" back into the thunderbird section in mozilla.eclass.

Users may need to re-install the plug-in after emerging a fix because of cached
files in their profile directory.

Paul.

Stale bug, reopen if this is still an issue with up-to-date ebuild versions.
