Hi,

you forgot to attach the file :)

I had thunderbird locally installed and then switched to the deb. When I switched I rm -rf ~/.thunderbird. I've even purged all thunderbird plugins, and then reinstalled them. I also tried purging typeaheadfind and inspector, and having only enigmail installed. Thunderbird should basically consider itself to be brand new. Both typeaheadfind and the inspector work as expected.

OK, since the debian package uses a different profile dir (.mozilla-thunderbird) this should not be a problem. What did you mean by I purged all thunderbird plugins?


I did this:
$ sudo apt-get remove --purge mozilla-thunderbeird-*

ok, if you did it that way, it appears to be a rare upgrade path. Usually people use just apt-get (dist-)upgrade.

You removed the extensions, upgraded thunderbird and reinstalled the extensions. I will try to reproduce it that way. Maybe remove and install enigmail one more time. Please backup the /var/lib/mozilla-thunderbird /usr/lib/mozilla-thunderbird dirs before doing anything ... otherwise we cannot reproduce this bug, once it has vanished.

If reinstalling enigmail does not help, just use apt-get remove mozilla-thunderbird; apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird-enigmail. That should fix your problem.

The first deb package I installed was 0.8 or 0.9 I think, whatever was current when I built this box around September. When 1.0 came out from mozilla.org I used that for a while until the debian version was up to 1.0. Although I didn't really use it at all until just a few days ago (I've been using Mail.app on an iBook for months).

So did enigmail work for the last version?
