Hello,

By any chance, would anyone be kind enough to share the latest version of Thunderbird (52.7.0) as a WAPT package? :mrgreen:

The latest available package (52.5.2-24) is giving an error: https://store.wapt.fr/?sort=date&search=tis-thunderbird

Regards,

This efficiency... :)

Thank you.

Just FYI (I'm not criticizing because I've never bothered to learn how to create packages), the installer doesn't create a desktop shortcut, so this morning I got dozens of calls saying that Thunderbird had disappeared... :cry:

Indeed, the package contains:

Code: Select all

remove_desktop_shortcut('Mozilla Thunderbird')
We have users here who may get annoyed if they are unable to remove an icon from their desktop.

An alternative is to create a shortcut in session_setup()

Hello,

I'm also a little sad to see the icon disappear.
Could you perhaps do as you did for Firefox: an installation package + a configuration package?

I find this approach much more practical; the installation package is the same for everyone and receives regular updates, while the configuration package adapts to each user's specific needs and hardly changes at all.

Thank you.

To be added to the existing Thunderbird package or to a new package:

Code: Select all

def session_setup():
    create_user_desktop_shortcut('Thunderbird',target=makepath(programfiles32,'Mozilla Thunderbird','thunderbird.exe'),icon=makepath(programfiles32,'Mozilla Thunderbird','thunderbird.exe'))
