Just a warning to everyone who uses Thunderbird or Firefox: the latest
gtk2 update (gtk2-2.10.8-1.fc6) partially breaks them, at least for some
people. Symptom for me was not being able to drag messages in
Thunderbird between folders, though apparently it also affects bookmarks
in Firefox. See:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=223571
Personally if you use these apps I would recommend putting the following
in your /etc/yum.conf until the above bug is fixed:
exclude=gtk2 gtk2-devel
If you've already upgraded and find you've got a broken system, you can
download the previous version that works OK (gtk2-2.10.4-10.fc6) from:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/6/
and do:
rpm -Uvh --oldpackage [filename]

I'm seeing this bug also with seamonkey for development.
There does seem to be a patch for Thunderbird submitted though.
Following through the maze of bug references, the patch below was said
to fix the problem.
