Comment 1 Denis Silakov 2012-06-14 16:33:58 MSK
This is likely caused by the same reason as bug #196 - Thunderbird doesn't pick up necessary file associations. Probably we should just rebuild it with "--enable-gio".
Comment 2 Alexander Burmashev 2012-06-14 16:37:37 MSK
As far as i can see it is already built with it

Comment 3 Denis Silakov 2012-06-19 12:50:35 MSK
Indeed, Thunderbird already uses gio.

It seems that when opening help page, Thunderbird looks for "x-scheme-handler/http" association which is not set anywhere in out mime databases.

For me it helps to add the following lines to the /use/share/applications/mimeapps.list file (owned by shared-mime-info package):

x-scheme-handler/http=firefox.desktop;
x-scheme-handler/https=firefox.desktop;

Probably the most correct way to fix this would be to add "x-scheme-handler/http" and "x-scheme-handler/https" to firefox.desktop file. After firefox installation/update these associations will appear in the mime database.

Comment 7 Denis Silakov 2012-10-02 16:16:37 MSK
Advisory: 
'Help' in Thunderbird didn't launch web browser since no browser was associated with "x-scheme-handler/http" and "x-scheme-handler/https" mime types.

This fix associates Firefox with these types.
