OK this works for me. 
Have you tried safe mode? (see https://support.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode for more information)

Is there some error messages in tools -> error console ?

This does not work in Safe Mode either. Note: I am using a clean install of Thunderbird with no extensions, and no pre-existing profile.

Error console shows the following:

Failed to load XPCOM component: /home/test/Desktop/thunderbird/components/libmozgnome.so

Error: An error occurred updating the button_previous command: TypeError: this._treeElement is undefined
Source File: chrome://global/content/globalOverlay.js

I need some linux guru meditation to figure out the fact that the path lib seems incorrect. Asac, Magnus, Wolfgang any ideas ?

[Mike Hommey [:glandium]]

Sounds like something similar to bug 508221

Comment 5

[Wolfgang Rosenauer [:wolfiR]]

the load failure of libmozgnome.so is probably just missing dependency on the system. 
ldd /home/test/Desktop/thunderbird/components/libmozgnome.so 
would probably tell us but it's likely not related to the missing icons. I agree with Mike that it sounds like the changed Gnome behaviour.
Would be interesting which version of Thunderbird that is exactly.

[Wayne Mery (:wsmwk)]

can you reproduce this using a current version of thunderbird?

if you are unable to reproduce, please close by setting stats to resolved, and resolution to WORKSFORME or another appropriate setting.

If you are able to reproduce, add new details, and a testcase if one does not already exist in the bug report.

RESOLVED INCOMPLETE due to lack of response to last question. If you feel this change was made in error please respond to this bug with your reasons why.
