- I am filing this against Thunderbird, even though it also concerns
- another package (GNOME Software).
+ Ubuntu's firefox and thunderbird ship their app icons in
+ /usr/share/pixmaps/
+
+ Please move them to /usr/share/icons/hicolor/*/apps/ instead so that
+ these apps can be shown as available for install in GNOME Software.

+ Original Report
+ ---------------
+ I am filing this against Thunderbird, even though it also concerns another
package (GNOME Software).
Essentially, using a freshly installed Ubuntu GNOME 17.04, Thunderbird
is not available in GNOME Software (the default software app for this
flavour). You cannot find it via search or the packages browser.
The only way to install it is via apt-get and even then it doesn't show
in Software (see attached picture).
