the 102.15.0 update are stagged in the security ppa so there is no need
to pause those updates, that's the last version on that serie

sorry but not matching the theme color is an annoying regression still
in 115, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1849509

we will work on updating to 115 but that's probably going to take a bit,
until then you will get the current 102 fixes or use the snap to get
115.2, at your conveniance

Title:
  [SRU request] Update Thunderbird to 115.x (as 102.x is EOL)

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

   * The Thunderbird 102.x series has its final release (12.15.0)
  planned for release on August 30th.  After that, the 102.x series will
  no longer receive critical security updates.  Due to the size and
  complexity of the Mozilla/Thunderbird codebase, it is extremely
  unlikely that the Ubuntu team could take on the task of backporting
  patches to new security issues once official support for the 102.x
  series has ended.

   * Updating to Thunderbird 115.x in all currently-supported Ubuntu
  releases will make sure users stay secure.

   * It should be noted that 115.x does make changes to the interface.
  While all these changes are ostensibly for the better, normally this
  level of change would disqualify an application from getting SRUed.
  However, running an EOL email client is a security/privacy risk to
  users that can't be ignored.

  * Official post detailing the interface changes:
  https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/115.0/whatsnew/

  * Official changelog for 115.0 release:
  https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/115.0/releasenotes/

  * Official changelog for 115.1 bugfix release:
  https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/115.1.0/releasenotes/

  [ Test Plan ]

  Not sure, I'm just a user

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * New major release, usual concerns apply

  [ Other Info ]
   
   * I'm guessing that this SRU was already planned to happen eventually, but 
since I couldn't find an official request, here we are
