Hi,
Latest TBird on MX Linux.
I changed the Locale in Preferences, and now when I launch TBird I get this:
https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?code ... z1kFf6Iytk
I've tried completely removing and re-installing but to no effect!
HELP!
Changed the Locale in preferences - TBird gone wrong

Re: Changed the Locale in preferences - TBird gone wrong
How did you change the locale?
Did you set intl.locale.requested ?
Did you download and install a language pack if you're switching languages?
Are you trying to do a one-time switch to a different locale or do you need to support multiple locales and try to easily switch between them depending upon what language you want to compose a message in?
My first thought would be to undo whatever you did and see if you can get it working again using the old locale before trying to change the locale again. Its easier to install a version of Thunderbird designed for a different locale rather than trying to change the locale. See https://thunderbird.topicbox.com/groups ... 48aa43151e
All of the add-ons like Simple Locale Switcher to let you use a menu to switch locales seem to be legacy add-ons that don't work with version 68 or later.
