As you can see, I've corrected the problem. What I did was roll back T'Bird from version 60 to version 52.9 Information for package MozillaThunderbird: ------------------------------------------- Repository : openSUSE-Leap-42.3-Update Name : MozillaThunderbird Version : 52.9.0-68.1 Arch : x86_64 Vendor : openSUSE
I'd rate this as a bug. Which buginfo does that go into?
The bugs Felix listed look promising, but I hope you have better luck with Mozilla actually addressing a formatting issue than I have. Glad you got your old format back, now $ sudo zypper al MozillaThunderbird (and check the listing after zypper up to determine if you want the update, then temporarily remove the lock) Wolfgang has done a great job keeping the FF 52esr packages updated in mozilla repo -- hopefully we can do the same with Tbird until things settle down with these "formatting" issues. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Gtk+2/Gtk+3 transition issue -- I doubt anyone went in and just changed a format setting (could have, but seems unlikely). I won't get on my soapbox, but when you turn programming into "what gtkbuilder can read from a list, instead of what the programmer actually designed the interface to do -- surprises happen quite frequently, only now the programmer has lost the ability to directly fix it because there is another layer of abstraction between what the programmer thinks he is doing and what the code-generation actually does... and you can't just look at the toolkit API for the specific adjustment, instead you have to find somebody that wrote the gtkbuilder interface to figure out how to tweak it -- because much of the low level documentation will only come after the dust settles... It's like trying to set the plasma systray clock font-size to 8 (or 7 or 9 or whatever you actually want it to be instead of what some undocumented desktop scaling algorithm decides it will be without asking you first :) -- David C.
