Description amreg 2014-05-04 13:41:32 UTC
Description of problem:
Applied updates today (along with thunderbird, there was also an update to firefox).
Update process went well, but at the end step (cleanup), there was an error message indicating that thunderbird "was missing".
Then I am unable to launch thunderbird by clicking the icon.

Trying form a shell yields :
[...@... ~]$ thunderbird 

(process:2542): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion `sys_page_size == 0' failed
Error: Platform version '24.4.0' is not compatible with
minVersion >= 24.5.0
maxVersion <= 24.5.0

In PackageKit, version 24.4.0 is still indicated as intalled, and 24.5.0 is available as an update.

Seems like the package database has been corrupted ?

If I manually uninstall 2.24.0 and install 2.25.0, will I have to recreate all my mail accounts ?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Update from 24-4.0.fc19 to 24.5.0.fc19

Neither Firefox nor Thunderbird were running when the updates were applied.

Mistyping above:
"If I manually uninstall 2.24.0 and install 2.25.0, will I have to recreate all my mail accounts ?"
should obviously be read:
"If I manually uninstall 24.4.0 and install 24.5.0, will I have to recreate all my mail accounts ?"
Sorry for the mistype.

New attempt a few minutes ago. As previous update went well on all the other packages, thunderbird is the only update proposed.

Error message at the end of the update:
Package thunderbird
24.5.0-1.fc19
i686
installed was not found.

Same error when trying to launch from the shell.

I had the same problem with this morning's (Monday 8am est) update. Thunderbird now will not run with same error reported above.
This is what happened during update:

Seems to be a problem with langpacks?

I tried "yum update thunderbird" from 24.4.0-1 to 24.5.0-1. Next, I tried yum remove thunderbird and yum install thunderbird, I got the same problem and the same log. It look like bad package.

Comment 6 Michael Cronenworth 2014-05-05 19:37:27 UTC
For some reason the mirrors were given an incomplete RPM file. The file built in koji is correct.

http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/thunderbird/24.5.0/1.fc19/i686/thunderbird-24.5.0-1.fc19.i686.rpm

See bug 1093927 for more info.

Local install of the kojipkgs version worked here.

Thanks
