I wish I'd googled for KDE along with this as the problem was apparently fixed once for KDE, although for some reason came back again now for some of us. Here's a link to the very same bug along with a fix that was targeted only for KDE http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-gnome/2006-December/016299.html Based on your find Jan it's fairly simple to workaround this in the 2.0.0.0 Makefile by disabling gnomeui and gnomevfs linkages. Here's my diff which also includes tiny cruft disabling ldap during the build since I can't build an LDAPable thunderbird2 on my system. (before the diff, following up, reverting CFLAGS to -O -pipe and the default CPUTYPE didn't help, neither did installing gnome2) --------------070206010003000704040709 Content-Type: text/plain; name="tbird_no_gnome.dif" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="tbird_no_gnome.dif" *** mail/thunderbird/Makefile.orig Fri Apr 27 18:00:27 2007 --- mail/thunderbird/Makefile Fri Apr 27 19:15:58 2007 *************** *** 17,23 **** COMMENT= Mozilla Thunderbird is standalone mail and news that stands above CONFLICTS= lightning-0.[0-9]* !
