Thanks Stefan for the clarification. I think this tight correlation between Thunderbird and Lightning versions is a real issue for linux distributions. When Thunderbird is distributed through the package manager of the distro, and Lightning installed (and updated) through the add-on manager of Lightning, these versions do not evolve at the same speed. At least on Ubuntu, it seems to be frequently installed like that, because the lightning ubuntu package does not include localization (this is an ubuntu-specific issue : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightning-extension/+bug/930589)
Upgrading to Thunderbird 24.0.1 in every distro appears to be only a temporary solution : if I understood correctly, the incompatibility should re-appear as soon as Lightning 2.6.2 is released? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1244619 Title: Thunderbird must be upgraded to Thunderbird 24.0.1 for lightning 2.6.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightning-extension/+bug/1244619/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
