Ok, some more details of testing I did.
First I was thinking it might be related to a patch I'm using in FF and TB which is that one http://www.rosenauer.org/hg/mozilla/file/31f273919032/mozilla-nongnome-proxies.patch
This is used to make sure that GConf is not used when running under KDE or other non-Gnome Windowmanagers but it looked innocent to me.
To make sure there is nothing in my own compilation I reproduced like this:
(sorry, didn't try FF that way yet)
- install thunderbird 18b1 as provided by mozilla.org
- remove libmozgnome.so from components/binary.manifest
- rename libmozgnome.so to aaalibmozgnome.sobbb in components
By removing libmozgnome both GConf and GSettings is not available in Thunderbird.
This is basically the same what happens when that component cannot be loaded because of deps issues.
Starting up TB and I see immediately a "The proxy server is refusing connections" error.
I'll now try to reproduce with FF18b2 the same way.
