1569947 - Save dialog includes "Mozilla Firefox" in window title

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Thunderbird :: Theme, defect)

Description

[Tristan Miller]

Attachment: Screenshot of a save dialog with incorrect window title

The Save dialog that appears by triggering various commands (e.g., File->Save As->File from the pull-down menu, or right-clicking on an attachment and selecting "Save As" from the context menu) includes the text "Mozilla Firefox" in the window title. Surely this text shouldn't be there at all, or else it should be "Thunderbird" instead. See attached screenshot.

Not sure if this problem affects all platforms or just mine -- I am using:

Mail client: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/60.8.0
OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20190717
KDE Plasma: 5.16.2
KDE Frameworks: 5.59.0
Qt: 5.13.0

Possibly this is related to Bug 1246573.

I don't see the problem using the Ubuntu supplied TB 60.8.0 on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS Gnome or Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon, or using TB 69.0b1 on those platforms.

Not sure I can test openSUSE Tumbleweed, but I'll try and fire up a KDE Live something and test when time permits.

The problem I reported is reproducible with the Thunderbird packaged for openSUSE. I've just now tested the official release from https://download.mozilla.org/?product=thunderbird-60.8.0-SSL&os=linux64&lang=en-US and the problem doesn't occur there—the save dialog looks completely different.

I think the problem may stem from openSUSE's kmozillahelper package, which provides integration of Mozilla applications with KDE. When I uninstall this package, the openSUSE-packaged Thunderbird uses a save dialog just like the official Thunderbird package, and the bug is not reproducible.

If you agree that this is a problem in kmozillahelper and not Thunderbird, then we can close this bug and I can re-open it on the kmozillahelper issue tracker.

It appears to me that openSUSE hasn't received the message that Thunderbird is no longer a Mozilla application, now developed by the Thunderbird council.

I would agree that this is a problem in kmozillahelper and not Thunderbird. Let's get some feedback from the experts before closing this bug.

Not our problem.
