Hello everyone, found a partial solution. The problem is somehow related to the locales.
I did the following: * Go to Preferences / Advanced * In the Select Box for the language choose English (United States) and ensure that it is one top of the list * Ensure that Regional settings locale is selected for Date and Time Formatting * Restart Thunderbird After doing the Thunderbird UI will be in English, but the date picker will work again. The question now is: Is this an upstream bug or is a bug in the EBuild? Or something in the configuration of my system?
