As it turned out, I AM already registered with this bugtracker. I just want to point out, that this is not limited to my add-on (TbSync). I am using a core feature which is also used by Thunderbird core itself. It is not just an add-on using ctypes module to load external libs.
I am not using ctypes module myself and I am not loading any lib. I am using the core DNS API of Thunderbird. So I think the fix must be broader and not limited to TbSync. -- 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: TbSync add-on needs a dependency on libc6-dev (for libresolv.so) Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Confirmed 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?
