Hi,
could someone please update the thunderbird-firetray-svn PKGBUILD or create a new PKGBUILD for the Firetray Thunderbird addon?
The problem is that the latest binary release of Firetray does not work with the latest release (6) of Thunderbird.
Thanks in advance & kind regards,
jamesbond007.

If you read the comments, Tarr posted a patch that applied to the folder container of the PKGBUILD allows it to create the right version for 6.0.
However, I've uploaded this to my dropbox:

Hi ethail,
many thanks for your reply.
I downloaded the tar.gz file from your dropbox and extracted the two contained files. Then I built the arch package with "makepkg -s" which first installed the missing dependencies (xulrunner and scons). The arch package itself was finally installed as root by "pacman -U thunderbird-firetray-svn-122-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz". Unfortunately, this result is: no systray icon is being shown by this Thunderbird extension or in other words, it does not work.
Any suggestions?
Kind regards,
jamesbond007.

Uninstall your firetray extension from the thunderbird addons menu and reboot thunderbird. That way seems the old will get replaced by the new

@ethail: I just downloaded the updated package from you dropbox and it works with Thunderbird 6.0.1 without any problems. Many thanks!

Does the updated thunderbird-firetray-svn 122-2 work with Thunderbird 6.0.2?

That's why it was updated, jamesbond007. You can also check the PKGBUILD and see where _thunderbird_dir points to.
From now on, I would appreciate that this kind of doubts are posted as comments in the AUR package page, not here.
