348125 - Deleting tags doesn't do work

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 345999

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Dave Suffling]

User-Agent:       Opera/9.01 (X11; Linux i686; U; en)
Build Identifier: version 2 alpha 1 (20060724)

Deleted tags continue to show up as empty lines in some parts of the program UI. They can be assigned to messages, too. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Under Edit->Preferences, Display, Tags:
2. Create a new tag. Call it "Green tag". Assign it a green colour.
3. Create a second tag. Call it "Red tag". Assign it a red colour.
4. Highlight "Green tag" and click delete. This produces a "bubble" in the tags list. 
5. Close the preferences window. 
6. Rick-click a message in the inbox. 
7. Under 'tags', check off "Red tag". Note that the message line turns red. 
8. Right-click the same message a second time. 
9. Under 'tags', locate and click the empty line. 
10. Note that the empty tag is applied, with default colour (black) -- and that the message line now turns to the colour for a message that has no tags applied. 
11. Viewing the context menu for a third time, note that the blank line (as well as any other applied tags) are accompanied by check marks.


Expected Results:  
Tags should be completely deleted. 

When accessing the tags preferences as described above a second time, one will note that 'bubbles' appear in the tags list (empty lines.)

Do you see any related messages on the Tools->Error Console?

The following appears:

Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'background-color'.  Declaration dropped.

I doubt it's relevant, but hey.
