thunderbird installed w/o ubuntu, can´t find it

Asked by inkadue

I´ve installed German Thunderbird 1.0.7 directly from the web "underneath" Ubuntu 6.10. Installation went fine, everything worked, but as soon as I closed the thunderbird window I can´t find it anywhere. GNOME doesn´t show the installation. Even a root search across the entire drives doesn´t show anything.
How can I mount this installation into the Ubuntu-Gnome. Help.

You don't need to use the Mozilla supplied. You can look for the mozilla-thunderbird-locale-de package in Synaptic and you'll be able to get German Thunderbird.

Thanks for the prompt feedback. Is there also a language pack for the
openOffice-Suite?

Ticket Closed. Thunderbird unpacked in the tmp folder (sic) and there it
was.

install the language-support-de package and the Deutsch support for all the apps will be enabled. Don't forget to close the ticket by using Launchpad web interface and "add comment" in your ticket. Hope that it helps.
