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.


For me it works again after changing lightning add-on to the official
one from https://addons.thunderbird.net/de/thunderbird/addon/lightning/
What i did roughly:
1) disable german
2) disable lightning, restart tb
3) install lightning from official source, restart
4) activate german, restart

Hope it also works for you.
Have a great weekend!

Nico

The question now is: Is this an upstream bug or is a bug in the EBuild?
Or something in the configuration of my system?

Hello Nicolai,

the USE flags don't make any difference. Rebuild my Thunderbird without
all system-* USE flags and with bindist enabled. No difference.

But I noticed some warnings related in the console which might be
related. I will check this today.

Hello Nicolai,

one Fedora everything works as expected. But Fedora has a slightly older
version of Thunderbird and GTK.

Which useflags has your Thunderbird set? Mine has the following useflags:

dbus gmp-autoupdate lightning startup-notification system-av1
system-harfbuzz system-icu system-jpeg system-libevent system-libvpx
system-sqlite system-webp


I have the same USE flags +jack +pulseaudio

did you try thunderbird-bin?

Yes. Me. I'm on Plasma, too.

Clicking the date in the editor does not open the calendar popup
anymore. Clicking the time the popup to choose the time still appears.

First I thought that's a permission problem, but other calendar apps on
smartphone and mac work flawlessly.
tb/lightning on mac os works as expected

[gentoo-user] Thunderbird Datepicker

2020-01-14 Thread Jens Pelzetter
Hello everyone,

since some weeks ago I have a problem with Thunderbird/Lightning. In the
dialogs for tasks or events I can't input or change dialog. Clicking on
the buttons to show the calendar does nothing. If I try the edit an
using the keyboard the date it reset to the previous value once the date
input loses the focus.

Does anyone of you experience to same problem. I have this problem on
two different systems, one running Xfce and other one running KDE Plasma.
