Thumbs up to go ahead with 91 on impish. Indeed, it does not seem like a great idea to:
- release impish with a series of thunderbird that is EOL (as @osomon stated) - go into the 22.04 cycle without having proven tb >= 91 in at least one previous release Furthermore, as of this writing, the disclaimer concerning profile upgrades is no longer present in the release notes for 91.1.2, as opposed to previous 91.x releases. I would bet that upstream is confident that everything is in order, but it is also possible that they simply forgot to add the disclaimer thus far - here is an archive link as proof anyway: https://web.archive.org/web/20210929002603/https://www.thunderbird.net/en- US/thunderbird/91.1.2/releasenotes/ -- 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/1940631 Title: Keep thunderbird 91 in impish-proposed until a point release enables profile upgrades Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Thunderbird 91 was released on August 11. According to the release notes (https://www.thunderbird.net/en- US/thunderbird/91.0/releasenotes/): « Thunderbird version 91.0 is only offered as direct download from thunderbird.net and not as an upgrade from Thunderbird version 78 or earlier. A future release will provide updates from earlier versions. » To follow upstream's lead on safe upgrades, let's keep 91 in impish- proposed for now, until a later point release enables upgrades, hopefully before final freeze.
