Package: thunderbird Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
The script /usr/bin/thunderbird needs to be fixed. Lines 196, 198 & 199 are not valid. It seems that in bash, you cannot place anything after a backslash (even comments), otherwise the rest of the statement get broken. In my case, I uninstalled the icedove package because it seemed to me useless as I use the thunderbird package now but I got an error message and couldn't launch thunderbird. Instead, I got those error message (in the console): /usr/bin/thunderbird: line 197: : command not found <12>Mar 8 00:32:15 jpdeplaix[32177]: /usr/bin/thunderbird: [profile migration] Couldn't migrate Icedove into Thunderbird profile due existing or symlinked folder '/home/jpdeplaix/.thunderbird'! <12>Mar 8 00:32:15 jpdeplaix[32179]: /usr/bin/thunderbird: [profile migration] /home/jpdeplaix/.icedove is probably a symlink pointing to a non existing target, at least not to /home/jpdeplaix/.icedove. INFO -> An error happened while trying to migrate the old Icedove profile folder '/home/jpdeplaix/.icedove'. After having removed the comments (so that backslash is the last character on the line) on the lines above, it works fine. Could you please fix the package as mentioned ? -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
