Thunderbird links don't work

Unread post by dougmack » 2014-05-14, 11:30

I just installed Pale Moon on my PCLinuxOS 32-bit KDE system and set it to "Use this browser for everything" or whatever it says. Now links in Thunderbird don't work.
I went back to Firefox and set it to use that browser for everything, and the links work now. The version of PM was updated to the latest right after i installed it.
What now?

Try:

Code: Select all

rm ~/.local/share/applications/userapp-Pale\ Moon-*.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache

The suggested fix seems to have worked. Maybe the program should be supplied with those files omitted?

Those files are created when you select "Use Pale Moon as the default browser"; something probably got borked up with those files.
