Description Guillaume Castagnino 2025-03-06 13:10:01 UTC
Hello,

Currently testing the brand new thunderbird, I face broken calendaring when system-icu is enabled.

I saw this comment:
# Joonas Niilola <juippis@gentoo.org> (2023-07-14)
# Calendar is broken with some languages on 115.0 release. Bug #910229
# Update with 136.0 release: Not personally seeing any issues so far,
# but the upstream (icu) issue is still open to this day (2025-03-05).
<mail-client/thunderbird-136.0 system-icu

Sadly I’m still affected. I get various javascript errors, and this lead to heavily broken interface (no left bar, main menu does not open, broken right side panel…). See attached console output.

Building thunderbird-136 with [-system-icu] solves the issue.

Thank’s!

Reproducible: Always

Yeah, upstream tb still carries the patch with bundled-icu. But good to know, thanks for trying it out!
