1238138 - [Linux] Since January 7, 2016, Thunderbird UI is broken. Accounts are not listed in left side column

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1237602

(Thunderbird :: Message Reader UI, defect)

Description

[Frederic Bezies]

Simple bug to reproduce. When I try to launch an homemade linux trunk of Mozilla Thunderbird, I cannot get accounts to be listed in the left column. UI is completely broken.

As there is no trunk builds for linux, I only can say that a commit broke Thunderbird UI on January 7.

When I try to launch an homemade build after January 6, I got this in my command line :

[fred@fredo-arch thunderbird]$ SyntaxError: missing ] after element list
-- Exception object --
*
-- Stack Trace --
@resource:///modules/gloda/public.js:12:1
nsAutoCompleteGloda@resource://gre/components/glautocomp.js:474:7
XPCOMUtils__getFactory/factory.createInstance@resource://gre/modules/XPCOMUtils.jsm:326:19
glodaSearch_XBL_Constructor@chrome://messenger/content/search.xml:75:13

I will attach screenshot to show you what's happening. Could it be related to GTK3 ?

Sorry for being late on feedback. Applied both patches from bug 1237602 and I still get a broken UI.

And I got this will launching thunderbird in command line :
