Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

In Ubuntustudio 9.10 using thunderbird 2.0.0.23+build1+nobinonly-
0ubuntu1,  attempting to launch thunderbird fails like this:

  $ thunderbird
  
  (thunderbird-bin:11442): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple 
times
  Segmentation fault
  $

Using the -safe-mode to disable plugins makes no difference.

I tried the debugging procedure from the wiki, and when I start gdb it
says, ""/usr/bin/thunderbird": not in executable format: File format not
recognised"

Thinking that perhaps the executable had been corrupted, I did an "apt-
get remove --purge thunderbird" then "apt-get install thunderbird" and
tried again...

  $ thunderbird -safe-mode
  
  (thunderbird-bin:12124): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple 
times
  Segmentation fault
  $ 

This time, I can see the thunderbird window open momentarily before it
fails, unlike before, but gdb still won't recognise the file format.
