This still needs to be fixed in FC4. *** Bug 166075 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Created attachment 121211 [details]
Replacement for /usr/lib/thunderbird-1.0.7/libxpcom_compat.so
This is a replacement libxpcom_compat.so for thunderbird-1.0.7-1.1.fc4, built
with the workaround I provided three months ago. You can drop this over the top
of the problematic one in /usr/lib/thunderbird-1.0.7/
Why can't gcc be updated? No fundamental reason; it's easier and quicker to work around it for now, though, so that thunderbird actually works for the users who've been waiting for it. The gcc bug is bug #163195 -- should be fixed in a gcc update some time soon, apparently. GCC has been updated. People are still asking why Thunderbird is broken... This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks. Distribution against which this bug was reported is no longer supported; could you please reproduce this with the updated version of the currently supported distribution (Fedora Core 6, or Fedora 7, or Rawhide)? If this issue turns out to still be reproducible, please let us know in this bug report. If after a month's time we have not heard back from you, we will have to close this bug as CANTFIX. Setting status to NEEDINFO, and awaiting information from the reporter. Thanks in advance. We haven't got any reply to the last question about reproducability of the bug with Fedora Core 6, Fedora 7, or Fedora devel. Mass closing this bug, so if you have new information that would help us fix this bug, please reopen it with the additional information. |
