WORKAROUND for 3.0.4+nobinonly
Binary package hint: thunderbird
After an update involving a GB language pack, Thunderbird will not launch at all. I've tried the terminal, Alt+F2 and directly from usr/bin with no success. The System Monitor doesn't show any instance of Thunderbird running.

I also see that in my Home folder, the .thunderbird folder is now named .thunderbird. upstream. The shortcuts can't find the files.
