Hi,

Any help compiling thunderbird?

I downloaded the source and ran

sh run-mozilla.sh but just get cannot execute.Any reason it's not been repo'd?

Cheers

Forget it. If you really want thunderbird, use slackware 14.1, it's directly available inside.

Compiling it by yourself is not something easy, especially if you are a beginner. (there's a reason why we have hdonk to do the Firefox ports :) )

You may also ask hdonk, as he knows how to proceed with Firefox, maybe he'll be ok to give a shot at Thunderbird.
 
I have both my cards to EXT4.

However I did my Pandora to debian (Pandian) and can use Icedove from there.

Enigmail (required for PGP encryption) only supports x86 and 64 bit unfortunately though lol. Bad times.
