Hello:

I started with the same proble.

By following that advice:

`ln -s /home/pang/.thunderbird /home/pang/snap/thunderbird/common/`

my profile does appear in the list when I run `thunderbird -P`, but then

 1. I get the following output
```
[GFX1-]: glxtest: libpci missing
ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment.

```
 2. then a popup window appear with the text
```Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. To use Thunderbird, you must first close the existing Thunderbird process, restart your device, or use a different profile.```, and an "ok" button

 3. When I click the ok button, the window closes, and thunderbird does
not raise.

Is this the same bug?
