A solution to the initial problem: mkdir -p ~/bin vim ~/bin/thunderbird
'''#!/bin/bash echo "executing $0 with: $@" LC_TIME=nl_NL.utf8 /usr/bin/thunderbird $@ ''' Restart your shell. Done! Your ~/.profile will include ~/bin/ in $PATH and your system will prefer the new thunderbird executable over the one in /usr/bin/. If not add the following to your ~/.profile '''# set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists if [ -d "$HOME/bin" ] ; then PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" fi''' -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390235 Title: thunderbird does not use the init.d directory in .mozilla-thunderbird To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/390235/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
