What package needs loaded so when I click on a PDF in thunderbird that the pdf viewer opens up.

This worked back in 5.2 but doesnt seem like the same package has been loaded in 5.3

If I same the file then use "evince file.pdf" that works - just a couple extra steps.

I don't know where gnome sets up its file associations, but I'm guessing that it has a utility similar to the kde one. When you set a file association in kde there is a tab for 'embedded' and the app has to be set up there as well as the main screen. HTH
