[Bug 877019] [NEW] Thunderbird can't modify any gconf settings

[Vadim Peretokin]

Public bug reported:

Configuration server couldn't be contacted: D-BUS error: Method "Set"
with signature "s(is)" on interface "org.gnome.GConf.Database" doesn't
exist


Configuration server couldn't be contacted: D-BUS error: Method "AddNotify" with signature "s" on interface "org.gnome.GConf.Database" doesn't exist

Configuration server couldn't be contacted: D-BUS error: Method
"LookupExtended" with signature "ssb" on interface
"org.gnome.GConf.Database" doesn't exist

I upgraded to 11.10 and wanted to give Thunderbird a try. My experience
so far hasn't been great because the app is giving errors all over the
place whenever it tries to change them.
