Thunderbird-6 builds now. The problem was too little tmpfs space and the USE="-alsa" flag. The new question is why is alsa required for the build to succeed? I don't follow thunderbird development but there is a previous bug report on this (https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308363) and there is also a "noalsa-fixup" patch in the current portage tree. Also, from the gentoo Changelog: 21 Oct 2010; Jory A. Pratt thunderbird-3.1.5.ebuild, +files/bug-606109.patch: Address build failure with -alsa Anyway, I'll use thunderbird with alsa until I can find more about this. Frank Peters
