It's a description of the rule that Thunderbird is violating.

Feel free to ask a screenshot of a normally running Thunderbird (before the crash) and/or of an empty desktop (after the crash), I can make them. > I do not see anything in any of the links that shows us your problem. > Do you think the 6 messages like this one in the syslog file excerpt I attached are normal? > /var/log/kern.log:May 22 12:36:52 daria-ubuntu kernel: [52297.778220] > thunderbird-bin[27840]: segfault at 4072c00c eip b6e4f6e4 esp bff1cfb0 > error 4 > what is the bare lf in the example you attached? A bare linefeed is not a nudist fisher but a LF that is not preceded by a CR. In order to find a bare linefeed in the mdnmsg message file I attached, you need to look inside the file to find it, for example, by doing this :

Almost one year ago. I hope you're in the believing state now. And that the bug is in the confirmed state.
