that sound good. I've no hard objections against adding this patch, it's currently just not my first priority as I'm working (again) in preparing the recurring of Thunderbird packages. Once the new Thunderbird packages on the way it's obviously a next step to pick up your patch and fixing this issue. Unfortunately we are suffering now from #844357 the build issues in mips*. So, I just can say again thank you for providing patches, we will add them as soon as possible. Regards Carsten
