Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): thunderbird-1.0.7-1.1.fc4.ppc.rpm ... on FC4 for PPC with all updates applied. How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. rm -rf ~/.thunderbird 2. thunderbird 3. Dialog appears, offering to import settings into profile. It doesn't matter whether which choice you pick; click Next. Thunderbird creates a profile in ~/.thunderbird, then crashes. 4. Run thunderbird -g to get the stack trace (included below).
