Jan. can you look at it please? Thanks. Can confirm the same on F32 beta with: firefox-74.0.1-1.fc32.x86_64 thunderbird-68.6.0-1.fc32.x86_64 Can confirm also with firefox-75.0-1.fc33.x86_64 Yes, I can see it too. The problem is that the thunderbird is launched with the same environment as Firefox, which has MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 set under wayland, so if there's already thunderbird running in xorg backend it fails to start stating that an instance of thunderbird is already running. I actually came to report this bug too. It has actually been prevalent for me since at least Fedora 31, but it may have started in Fedora 30, I'm not sure. It did work at one time. I didn't experience this with "mailto" links, but rather by clicking on "Email Link..." in Firefox, which results in the same error. I use this feature a lot and have been hoping for a fix for a while now, but after upgrading to Fedora 32 and having the same bug, I finally got motivated to search and/or post a bug report. So, here I am. Thanks for looking into it. Can confirm this too. on FC31 and FC32 firefox-76.0.1-1.fc32.x86_64 thunderbird-68.7.0-1.fc32.x86_64 I'll look at it, we need to backport https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1609134 to TB too.
