[Solved] Thunderbird (64-bit) won't start

It gives the following error

$ /opt/thunderbird/thunderbird
/opt/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libdbus-glib-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

But it does exist

$ locate libdbus-glib-1.so.2
/usr/lib/libdbus-glib-1.so.2
/usr/lib/libdbus-glib-1.so.2.1.0

Following packages are installed

$ pacman -Ss lib32 | grep glib
multilib/lib32-glib 1.2.10-11 [0.11 MB] [installed]
multilib/lib32-glib2 2.26.1-2 [1.26 MB] [installed]
multilib/lib32-glibc 2.13-1 [2.43 MB] [installed]

$ pacman -Ss lib32 | grep dbus
multilib/lib32-dbus-core 1.4.0-2 [0.09 MB] [installed]

Re: [Solved] Thunderbird (64-bit) won't start

you need lib32-dbus-glib and not lib32-glib or lib32-glib2

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
