[SOLVED] Thunderbird not starting

[Veritai]

 Whilst trying to migrate my mail from PCLOS 2009 to 2010 I first set up thunderbird and copied the .thunderbird folder over... which didn't work.

Next I went to the forums and did some research (I know, I know but guys generally don't read instructions   )
I uninstalled and then reinstalled Thunderbird and then copied the old folder over.

Now thunderbird won't start.

Have you rebooted?

Try starting Thunderbird in a terminal and post any errors you get here. I won't be able to decipher the errors for you but many here can.

Tried rebooting - no luck
Tried running in terminal - still won't start

Don't know why but after the third uninstall/reinstall it worked.

I had to get married 3 times before that worked out.
