--- Comment #5 from Ladar Levison <ladar(a)lavabit.com> ---
I've been compiling this package from source since RHEL 7, and then again with
RHEL 8. Now with RHEL 9, I'm going through the process again.
In short, this is a really useful Thunderbird addon, with an active upstream
project. The code itself is of a relatively high quality (certainly higher than
Thunerbird itself), and based on my usage, its been stable. I've used it rather
extensively with Gnome on my RHEL 7 then 8 machine, which used Xorg. And to a
lesser extent, on my Fedora 34, 35, and now 36 machine, which uses Wayland.
There is a potential blocker though. I noticed an upstream issue was reported
by someone running Arch, who had trouble birdtray segfaulting on their Plasma
desktop. The upstream is issue is still pending, but since the Qt5 version,
5.15.2 reported is the same shipped with RHEL 9, and because Fedora 36, with
5.15.3 is also close, it would be nice if a Plasma aficionado, who uses Plasma
and Thunderbird on a daily basis, could give it try before its officially
released.
Otherwise this package has my vote to become an official Fedora package. If it
gets cleared, Id be happy to give the spec file a through review.
P.S. I'm about to compile the latest upstream snapshot for RHEL 9, so I can
start testing that. My hope is that if it doesn't generate bug reports from
Fedora users, and it runs stable in my environment for the next 3-4 months,
then it can also become an EPEL 9 package.
