I recently installed the Flatpak version of Thunderbird Version 115.0.1.

I can no longer start Thunderbird from the command line. It is supposed to run by using the command flatpak run org.mozilla.Thunderbird. When I issue this command nothing happens.

I can however start Thunderbird by using rofi. When I use rofi to start Flatpak Thunderbird, it runs perfectly.

I do not have any problems with any of the other Flatpak applications that I have on my system. Prior to updating Thunderbird, I did not have any problems with the Flatpak version of Thunderbird that I had installed. It is just this new version of Flatpak Thunderbird that is giving me problems.

I am running Debian Linux version 12.

My version of Thunderbird has now been updated to 115.1.1 and I am now able to start Thunderbird from the command line using the command flatpak run org.mozilla.Thunderbird.

Many thanks for your assistance.

On further investigation I find that I can run Thunderbird from the command line if I run the following command:

flatpak run --branch=stable --command=thunderbird org.mozilla.Thunderbird

I am not quite sure why I need to run this more verbose command as I should only need to run:

flatpak run org.mozilla.Thunderbird.

Anyway, I seem to have got it working, so I am happy with this work-around.

This should be fixed in Thunderbird flatpak 115.1.0 which was released some time ago. Please check if you have this update available.
