Bug Description

At least with version 6 and now with 7beta, the addresbook entries show up empty when I try to edit them. Same thing if I first create a new one, as if the GUI is totally different when adding or editing an entry...

This is actually just because the shipped extension doesn't include the xpt typelibs, because of a file permission problem in the build. That's a trivial fix, and we also need to make sure that is fatal in the future.

Anyway, milestoning for beta 1, we definitely want this

This bug was fixed in the package thunderbird - 7.0~b1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3

---------------
thunderbird (7.0~b1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Fix LP: #833591 - ensure that the xpt typelibs are generated correctly
    at build. Also make sure that any failures in future are fatal, so we
    don't create a broken binary
    - update debian/rules
    - update debian/eds/build.sh
    - update debian/eds/config_build.sh

I'm still seeing this bug on 7.0~b1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 (gnome shell, amd64). All fields empty when editing an existing contact. Cannot click "OK" when trying to save a new contact (clicks, but doesn't repond).

Select-widgets also look strange (see attached screenshot).
