Hi,

I found the Lightning extension from the Mozilla site, and want to add it to icedove; how can I do this? Opening the '.xpi' file with icedove starts an empty message. The xul-ext-lightning package will not install, due to Ubuntu's thunderbird being a dependency. Evolution calendar is not an option; the app is inaccessible with orca.

Thanks,

-Dave

Hi Dave,

Adding Lightning is very simple!

1) Open IceDove

2) Open the Menu on the top right

3) Select Add-Ons

* (Alternatively you can right click on the top of the IceDove window, select "Menu Bar" and then go to Tools -> Add-Ons)

4) Search for Lightning

5) Install and Restart IceDove

Best,
Lev

Turns out not to be as simple as finding Lightning in the addons manager, and adding it, or I wouldn't have posted this query. Thanks!

Open the Application Manager/store/whatever it's called, then look for iceowl (the equivalent of Lightning - it's a long story).

At least that works in Trisquel 6.

In IceDove, Lightning is still called Lightning for me on Trisquel 7.

Best,

What about the package name?

Hello,

Sorry I think we are talking about two different things. I am referring two installing Lightning from within IceDove using the Add-ons panel, in this instance it is still called Lightning. Sorry for the confusion.

Best,
Lev

Oh...:)

Anyway, I think it's best to install the package rather than installing it from within the app.

Thanks! No iceowl in Trisquel 7. Tried Synaptic, apt-get and the Add/Remove Software utility. Thanks for sparing us a retelling of the long story; LOL!

Well, how'bout that; it's in the addons manager search thing today; was not there when last I looked. Sorry for being a bit short-tempered with Lev. We're good.

Cheers,

Dave

Hi Dave,

I am glad you got this working! I made the suggestion because I just
installed Lightning yesterday morning as well so I was sure it was
there. :)

It's working, here, too; I was on a different network on previous attempt to find lightning; all I got for addons page for icedove was the FSF software directory entry for it.
