Thunderbird's update is not broken, it has no API/ABI breakages.
Everything works just fine.
Personally, I think this change warrants its own self-contained
change proposal in the next release of Fedora, even though Thunderbird 68 will not receive
updates after Sep 2020
OpenPGP is now build-in into Thunderbird core. No third party addons
required.
One way or another, I need to roll back until SOGo has time to finish
porting their extension to the new API. After rolled back, the Lightning extension
isn't enabled or even visible in Add-ons, so I have to figure out how to fix that.
Fedora is a bleeding edge distribution. If you need a legacy version of
any package, you can always build it in COPR. I want to use the most
recent version.
