>Description:
Basically, the libraries installed from dist/bin and dist/bin/components are .dylib(s) on darwin, but the install-foo attempts to install them as .so(s) and obviously in this case can not find them.

Install Thunderbird on Darwin
>Fix:
I copied the files by hand and then ran thunderbird-bin -register by hand.
