User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040919 Firefox/0.10 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040919 Firefox/0.10 Just a trivial issue: Firefox profile is stored in ~/.mozilla/firefox, so Thunderbird one should be stored in ~/.mozilla/thunderbird instead of ~/.thunderbird for uniformity (as well as sunbird). This also make easier to find and keeps your homedir cleaner. Using the following patch: --- mozilla/mail/app/Makefile.in.orig 2004-09-21 10:58:59.132134672 +0200 +++ mozilla/mail/app/Makefile.in 2004-09-21 10:59:47.013855544 +0200 @@ -238,7 +238,7 @@ ifneq (,$(filter-out OS2 WINNT Darwin,$(OS_ARCH))) thunderbird:: mozilla.in Makefile.in Makefile $(DEPTH)/config/autoconf.mk cat $< | sed -e "s|%MOZAPPDIR%|$(mozappdir)|" \ - -e "s|%MOZ_USER_DIR%|.thunderbird|" \ + -e "s|%MOZ_USER_DIR%|.mozilla/thunderbird|" \ -e "s|%MREDIR%|$(mredir)|" \ -e "s|%MOZILLA-BIN%|$(PROGRAM)|g" > $@ chmod +x $@ doesn't seem to work. What am I missing? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Build thunderbird 2. start thunderbird Actual Results: ~/.thunderbird is created Expected Results: ~/.mozilla/thunderbird should be created instead I'm using Gentoo, thus compiling straight from sources.
