To see if I can reproduce this behavior anyhow I have setup now a complete new install of an Stretch system on i386 with and without the Thunderbird packages with a further dist-upgrade to testing and start the testing again within a Gnome3 desktop environment. At no point I've seen a broken Lighting installation, no matter if I copy a existing HOME folder into new the user profile or if I add additional a existing Thunderbird profile into the new user profile finally. I got always a working Lightning. So it's currently not a problem of the Thunderbird packages. The information from above is unfortunately a bare minimum of information about your system and setup. Without additional information it's impossible to do any further debugging from here. The information from the first email is showing that debconf-show was failing. That is unusual and must have a reason. This hides some maybe interesting additional information about the packages around TB on your system. You also have written that Lightning is shown within the Extension overview, this means Thunderbird has successful detected the Lightning extension. So from the application view Lighting is around. Is Ctrl+Shift+C showing the Calendar? Currently I have no further idea how I can debug this a bit more, for me it makes not really sense to do a lot of Q&A about some really basic things if you can't do some more self research on your side. I'm happy if other user can step in and try to help to untagle this report. Regards Carsten
