I am running a fresh installation of 10.0-RELEASE. Recently I have
built mail/thunderbird 24.4.0. But any attempt to add a new email
account crashes thunderbird with writing out thunderbird.core.
To investigate thunderbird in more detail I have copied my Linux
profile to the FreeBSD machine. Thunderbird uses this profile and
seems otherwise OK but any attempt to add another email account
crashes it again.
This is my configuration:
# make showconfig
===> The following configuration options are available for
thunderbird-24.4.0: DBUS=on: D-Bus IPC system support
DEBUG=off: Build with debugging support
ENIGMAIL=on: Enigmail extension
GCONF=off: GConf configuration backend support
GIO=on: GIO for file I/O
GNOMEUI=off: libgnomeui support module
GNOMEVFS2=off: GnomeVFS2 (virtual file system) support
GSTREAMER=off: Multimedia support via GStreamer
LIBPROXY=off: Proxy support via libproxy
LIGHTNING=on: Calendar extension
LOGGING=on: Additional log messages
OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS=on: Use extra compiler optimizations
PGO=off: Use Profile-Guided Optimization
PROFILE=off: Build with profiling support
TEST=off: Build and/or run tests
====> Options available for the multi AUDIO: you have to choose at
least one of them ALSA=on: ALSA audio architecture support
PULSEAUDIO=off: PulseAudio sound server support
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
At least Thunderbird remains unusable for me in this state. Is this a
known issue? Is it a bug or a configuration problem?

Peter
