Dirk, have you tried reproducing this in Firefox? I think this might actually be the answer to the issue: http://mike.kaply.com/2012/08/01/major-change-setting-default- preferences-for-firefox-14/ You need to place syspref.js into /usr/lib/thunderbird/defaults/preferences/ (not pref) Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1081015/comments/10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2012-11-20T10:03:14+00:00 H.-Dirk Schmitt wrote: $ locate syspref.js /etc/firefox/syspref.js /etc/firefox/syspref.js.dpkg-new /etc/thunderbird/syspref.js /etc/thunderbird/syspref.js.dpkg-new /usr/lib/firefox/defaults/preferences/syspref.js /usr/lib/thunderbird/defaults/pref/syspref.js O.k. - then it seems to be an ubuntu diversion that the "old" location is still used. ll /usr/lib/thunderbird/defaults/pref/ total 8.0K -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 331 Oct 28 16:12 channel-prefs.js lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Oct 28 16:15 syspref.js -> /etc/thunderbird/syspref.js -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3.9K Oct 28 15:31 vendor.js But I ensured that modifying the /etc/thunderbird/sysprefs.js works by adding: > pref("c42.version.syspref", "$Id: syspref.js 6971 2012-11-20 09:57:26Z > root@heuler $"); Buf if I add a lockPref() statement, the whole file is ignored. > lockPref("c42.test.bug2026","TEST"); Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1081015/comments/11 ** Changed in: thunderbird Status: Unknown => New ** Changed in: thunderbird Importance: Unknown => Medium ** Bug watch added: Mozilla Bugzilla #776490 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=776490 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1081015 Title: lockPref() in /etc/thunderbird/syspref.js is not working Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: New Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Via /etc/thunderbird/sysprefs.js is it possible to set system wide configuration settings. lockPref() should ensure that the user can't change this setting.
