I should also mention that the maintainer of the Thunderbird add-ons pointed me to this relevant issue tracker:
https://github.com/jobisoft/DAV-4-TbSync/issues/202 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875348 Title: dependence upon libresolv.so (libc6-dev) Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When trying to get the add-on TbSync to work in combination with the add-on "Provider for CalDAV & CardDAV", I encountered a mysterious error message, "status.service-provider-setup-failed". After getting in touch with the maintainer of these add-ons, it turns out that this add-on depends upon libresolv.so. Indeed I managed to resolve the error by manually installing libc6-dev which contains this so. Therefore should libc6-dev be a dependency for Thunderbird?
