We've decided to revert package because it broke dependencies
with thunderbird-lightning. Decision to rebase
package to 24 was made a bit in a hurry and since we wasn't able to rebase to
lightning 2.6 fast enough we decide
to use 17.0.9 ESR to keep our users secure. We're trying to deliver security updates
as fast as we can because we
think that's most important for users. I'm a bit unsure if keeping max version
(ie. Requires: thunderbird <
%{thunderbird_next_version}) for dependent packages is fruitful here because older plugin
doesn't make Thunderbird
unusable, it only disables addons which is not compatible with newer version (a nuisance
but at least security
issues are fixed) and this affect only some users.
For the next rebase time (Thunderbird 31?), I'll consider update to another 24.0.X
ESR to make transition more
smooth. So sorry for confusion and thanks everyone who let us know by karma
thank you for having now a unsupported TB24 on my machine which works without
any problem and does not see security updates until TB31 which takes months
in case i do not want to risk damage my profile
that is how you satisfy testers well instead update the extension....
