Updated. This will now track the monthly release channel, as long as the patch file continues to work.

@karboncore ok, and do you mind just takeover this package and firefox-globalmenu? I use ESR channel, so I don't actually maintain them.

I have a working PKGBUILD for v137. Would be happy to load it here since there's a separate ESR package.

@rodneyck No, I'm just too lazy to compile every 0.0.x version update...
Anyway, I checked the latest update and found the Thunderbird Monthly became the new release version, and the old release version became ESR, so I created a new package thunderbird-esr-globalmenu and will update there since I prefer to use ESR channel, and have uploaded the compiled package there too.


The patch works on version 128.9.1 for me, but I don't know if it works on 137.0. In version 128 the configuration to enable global menu has become back to ui.use_unity_menubar, but it's enabled by default, so shouldn't be the problem.

Was wondering if you abandoned this? I haven't seen any builds in your Google Drive lately?

BTW, I tried to apply the fixes listed below, 'MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0' and 'widget.gtk.global-menu.enabled' but neither worked for the latest Thunderbird release in both Wayland or X11.

This package fails to build due to Thunderbird's mach tool encountering a mismatch between the system Python version and the expected virtual environment. To resolve this, I had to downgrade to Python 3.11, which is available in the AUR.

@detian... thank you. That did the trick. I completely forgot about that env var.

detian commented on 2024-12-15 23:56 (UTC)

@bytefoundry Maybe you are using Xwayland in 115 build but didn't know, try MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0 env var in 128 build?

bytefoundry commented on 2024-12-15 14:15 (UTC)

Global menu not working in Wayland, but it was with the version Thunderbird 115 build.

@detian Perfect, that worked. Thank you again!
