Verbindung mailer -> thunderbird (flatpak)

[ulid]

Hello everyone,


maybe someone can give me a hint. I am trying to set a path from "mailer" to Thunderbird (128.8.1 esr, flatpak) in krusader. All attempts so far have failed because I cannot find the location of Thunderbird. Does anyone have a working combination and can tell me the path?
That would be great, thank you very much.
Uli

Hi Ulid,

applications installed through Flatpak can be run with flatpak itself.

First you have to check the internal flatpak name for Thunderbird; `flatpak list`
will give you the list of all you flatpak applications, you have to check for
`org.mozilla.Thunderbird`.

Then, you should be able to launch Thunderbird from the command line using
`flatpak run org.mozilla.Thunderbird`.

As you cannot use parameters in dependencies Konfigurator, you should create
a bash file (eg: somewhere in you home folder or wherever you like) whit the
previous command.

/usr/local/bin/thunderbird.sh

--- STARTS HERE ---
#!/bin/bash
flatpak run org.mozilla.Thunderbird
--- ENDS HERE ---

And then set that script in Konfigurator. I'm assuming that you have bash installed
and your distro has /usr/local/bin; any path will be fine too; paths outside you home
directory could require root permissions to create that file.

Hope that helps
Davide

Hello Davide,


Thank you very much for your help. I will try to implement this.
Unfortunately, I'm not very experienced with Linux.
I'll let you know when I have a result.
