| micahg | awesome :) | 00:38 |

| micahg | chrisccoulson: do you know why the langpacks are built on non-i386 archs? | 00:39 |
| micahg | rather, is there a reason for that | 00:39 |
| BarkingFish | Morning guys - Just wondering if you can help fairly quickly, I got an update earlier to thunderbird mail, and it's now not working at the current version. I click to open, the icon sits for a few moments, but thunderbird does not open, no gui, nada | 00:40 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: what release? | 00:42 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: you probably have an incompatible addon | 00:42 |
| BarkingFish | Installed: 9.0+build2-0ubuntu0.11.10.1 | 00:43 |
| BarkingFish | and I have no addons whatsoever | 00:43 |
| micahg | hmm... | 00:44 |
| micahg | I'm running the same build with addons | 00:44 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: try starting in safe mode, thunderbird -safe-mode I believe | 00:44 |
| BarkingFish | what are you on, ubuntu or kubuntu, and which version? | 00:44 |
| micahg | ubuntu | 00:44 |
| BarkingFish | ah | 00:44 |
| BarkingFish | I'm on Kubuntu, 11.10 | 00:44 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: can you run 'strace -f -eopen thunderbird 2>&1 | tee ~/thunderbird.strace' and see if you get anything interesting | 00:45 |
| BarkingFish | ok, give me a moment, anything pops up and i'll pastebinit for you | 00:46 |
| BarkingFish | holy cow | 00:47 |
| BarkingFish | I got so much it blew my konsole scrollback :0 | 00:47 |
| micahg | well, you should get output (stored in that file) the question is is there any interesting output | 00:47 |
| micahg | CTRL-C to stop if the gui doesn't pop up | 00:48 |
| BarkingFish | i didn't get a chance to check it all, it went past so fast and probably half of it is missing :) | 00:48 |
| BarkingFish | the GUI did come up though | 00:48 |
| micahg | cool :) | 00:48 |
| micahg | weird though | 00:48 |
| micahg | ISTR someone else having a similar issue, that it would only run in gdb | 00:49 |
| micahg | but that was firefox | 00:49 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: can you check the addons manager, Tools -> Addons to see if anything interesting is in there | 00:49 |
| BarkingFish | i'm running strace etc into a text file, so I can pastebin it up - pastebinit won't read directly from strace :( | 00:50 |
| BarkingFish | sure | 00:50 |

| micahg | BarkingFish: you already did that, tee writes to the file given as well as STDOUT | 00:50 |
| BarkingFish | oh crud | 00:51 |
| BarkingFish | so I now have a text file writing a text file into a text file :P The paradox of the century :) | 00:51 |
| micahg | heh | 00:51 |
| BarkingFish | micahg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/794439/ | 00:51 |
| BarkingFish | that was one hell of a file :) | 00:52 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: email might have been better :) | 00:55 |
| micahg | yeah, it comes out fast | 00:55 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: so, I'd suggest disabling the unity and messaging menu integration in the addons and see if that helps | 00:56 |
| BarkingFish | micahg: I figured email would have been faster too, but until I get the email client stable and I'm certain it's gonna work, I wasn't gonna send anything out | 00:56 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: oh, right :) | 00:56 |
| BarkingFish | i didn't realise i had any addons. It's great that things get put in without your knowledge :P | 00:56 |
| BarkingFish | I certainly didn't add them | 00:57 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: those seem to be the only real failures in terms of not being able to open | 00:57 |
| BarkingFish | all disabled, how do I remove them, since I didn't install them, and I don't really want my email client bloated with [censored] I didn't ask for :) | 00:58 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: yeah, globalmenu is a recommends, messaging menu is just shipped in the thunderbird binary for some reason | 00:58 |
| BarkingFish | i'd prefer them all out of the system if I can get rid of them | 00:58 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: thunderbird-globalmenu you can uninstall with muon | 00:58 |
| BarkingFish | i use apper, but whatever :) | 00:59 |
| micahg | the other one, you can't really remove ATM, you can ask chrisccoulson when he gets back if he'd consider putting that in its own binary | 00:59 |
| BarkingFish | it would be nice | 00:59 |
| micahg | BarkingFish: sure, I just figured Muon since it's the Kubuntu default | 00:59 |
| BarkingFish | it's our default? | 01:00 |
| micahg | I thought Muon was the default package manager for Kubuntu | 01:00 |
| * BarkingFish shakes his head. | 01:00 | |
| * micahg could be wrong | 01:01 | |
| BarkingFish | It used to be kpackagekit, which died when packagekit wouldn't build for 11.10, and it was changed to apper I thought, by dantti from kde | 01:01 |
| BarkingFish | apparently, micahg - it IS muon | 01:04 |
| BarkingFish | and that disappoints me no end, because muon is a royal pain in the backside :) | 01:04 |
