> Tried but didn't work out how to use original omni.ja content from ~/.thunderbird/
I download the original thunderbird from mozilla and extract omni.ja from it. So far, it has worked fine this way but it is cumbersome. Even if the ubuntu package included the original omni.ja in the package somehow, that would be an improvement. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004841 Title: Thunderbird Icon set is broken (ugly, black and white icons) Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since Oneiric the standard theme in thunderbird is broken. In Oneiric (and Precise) some of the coloured Icons were replaced by black&white pictograms, but not consistently all. For example the Lightning Icons still remain coloured, as they were before. I don't know why some Icons were replaced by pictograms (is this because of a new GTK-Theme?) , this is only in the Linux version of TB, the Windows version still has the coloured icons. It would have been better if the old standard theme remains untouched, and a new theme would have been created for the new black&white pictograms. See attached screenshot for the weird icons. Possible work-around: Download Thunderbird from mozilla, extract a file called omni.ja and overwrite the copy at /usr/lib/thunderbird/. Not sure if this has undesired effects (it may delete all your email, so be careful!), but it works for me.
