Description of problem: thunderbird xremote seems no longer able to detect an already running thunderbird. When you click on mailto: links while thunderbird is already running, or click thunderbird again to launch, the "Choose User Profile" dialog pops up. #MOZ_CLIENT_PROGRAM="$MRE_HOME/mozilla-xremote-client -a thunderbird" #MOZ_CLIENT_PROGRAM="$MRE_HOME/thunderbird -remote" Same results testing both of these lines in /usr/bin/thunderbird. Adding set -x to /usr/bin/thunderbird reveals this: [warren@ibmlaptop ~]$ thunderbird + MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/thunderbird-0.8.0 + MRE_HOME=/usr/lib/thunderbird-0.8.0 + export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME MRE_HOME + MOZ_PROGRAM=/usr/lib/thunderbird-0.8.0/thunderbird + MOZ_CLIENT_PROGRAM='/usr/lib/thunderbird-0.8.0/mozilla-xremote-client -a thunderbird' + MOZARGS= ++ check_running ++ /usr/lib/thunderbird-0.8.0/mozilla-xremote-client -a thunderbird 'ping()' ++ RETURN_VAL=2 ++ '[' 2 -eq 2 ']' ++ echo 0 ++ return 0 + ALREADY_RUNNING=0 + '[' -z '' ']' + '[' 0 -eq 1 ']' + rm_shit + find /home/warren/.thunderbird -name XUL.mfasl + xargs rm -f Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): thunderbird-0.8.0-3
Need patches for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=261315 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=261961 Added to my tree. Need to solve compiling on gcc3.4.2 issue first.
Seems good now. Thanks!
