We use LDAP for contacts. TB on GNU/Linux doesn't show the details of the
selected LDAP entry. The same works on Windows. See attached screenshots.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Search for someone in LDAP
2. Click on the entry

Actual Results:  
Details of the LDAP entry are not shown

Expected Results:  
The LDAP entry details should be shown (as on Windows) - see attached screeshot.

Thunderbird on Windows shows the complete info about selected entry.

Attachment: Faulty: TB on GNU/Linux doesn't show details

TB doesn't reveal details about the chosen entry from LDAP.

Pavel, if you display dialog with Contact properties - is it filled correctly?

There were problems with some contacts with non-ASCII characters (e.g. bug
#151448) can you test it on some contact with only ASCII characters?

I'm wondering if there's any public LDAP server with which I can test this problem.

Comment 5

[Pavel Janik]

We tested it: it does not matter on the actual contents of the LDAP database.
The card is displayed in Windows with only ASCII letters and is not displayed
*at all* in GNU/Linux.

On both systems, Contact properties are displayed correctly.

Found LDAP server with public read-only access.

Shin> Sending server adress to you.

Even unconfirmed, this bug is now fixed in Thunderbird 1.0.

Thanks.
