I removed Unity from my system (Ubuntu 13.04), however, there is a remaining file located in Thunderbird Extensions, which is "Messaging Menu and Unity Launcher integration". I searched for the file in Synaptic, but I didn't find it.

My question is: What is the name of the package?

This extension is included in Thunderbird's package itself. You would need to run:

sudo rm /usr/lib/thunderbird-addons/extensions/messagingmenu@mozilla.com.xpi

This will remove the extension's installer. When you do so it should (in theory) allow you to remove it from your Thunderbird profile.

    On my system the path is /usr/lib/thunderbird-addons/extensions/. Running sudo rm /usr/lib/thunderbird-addons/extensions/messagingmenu@mozilla.com.xpi did the trick. Thanks for your help! – Removed May 10 '13 at 05:18
  • @Dennis my apologies I copied from the wrong package (I use both the Daily builds and the stable builds on this system). – RolandiXor May 10 '13 at 23:37
  • No problem, you helped me anyway. – Removed May 11 '13 at 00:09
  • Does someone distribute a version of the thunderbird package without this "Integration"? It's buggy (https://bugs.launchpad.net/globalmenu-extension/+bug/1196216), and I don't want to see it coming back when I upgrade thunderbird. Apart from a different module distribution, is there another tidy way to make sure it doesn't get reinstalled? – mc0e Apr 15 '14 at 13:35
  • @mc0e I believe there are packages from Ubuntuzilla that may not have the extension. Otherwise you can download Thunderbird directly from Mozilla and run a local installation. – RolandiXor Apr 16 '14 at 06:32
