Hello folks. In my Tumbleweed Plasma, upgrading to snapshot 20241111 caused MozillaThunderbird being installed automatically. zypper se --requires-pkg MozillaThunderbird shows that kmozillahelper requires Thunderbird, which is weird, because this was not the case before. I wonder if this is related to Firefox dropping KDE integration patches in snapshot 20241111.
I’ve already filed a bug report. Have you guys encountered this problem?
Oh, I see. Thanks for pointing out!
Same here on Leap 15.6 and the MozillaFirefox package from the Mozilla OBS Project repository –
# zypper remove --clean-deps kmozillahelper

With previous Firefox updates, I only removed the Thunderbird and libotr5 packages – hopefully removing the kmozillahelper package as well will help to alleviate this issue …
With snapshot 20241113 this issue is gone.
Yes. The kmozillahelper package was removed from factory as mentioned in boo#1226112.
