Comment 4 Felix Schwarz 2020-07-17 10:22:38 UTC
I think this release is incompatible with thunderbird-enigmail. Would you mind adding the right obsoletes/conflicts?

As a thunderbird-enigmail user I'd appreciate if I could still use enigmail in F31/F32 until thunderbird's built-in OpenPGP replacement works reliably. 
As a thunderbird-enigmail maintainer I can understand if you need to push this also to stable channels due to security issues. In that case please go ahead and make the required announcements (also on behalf of thunderbird-enigmail).

Comment 5 P D 2020-07-20 05:04:07 UTC
Upstream is recommending that linux distro maintainers wait until 78.2 before updating thunderbird.

Comment 16 Nick Bebout 2020-09-01 22:53:50 UTC
Can we get an upgrade to 78.2.1 soon?  I'd really like to be able to use the OAuth2 authentication.

Comment 17 Frédéric Pierret 2020-09-10 07:01:35 UTC
Hi,
Just to let you know that I've built Thunderbird 78.2.1 for Fedora 31 and 32 (33 soon I need to debug a failing build): https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/fepitre/thunderbird-78/build/1654837/
The updated source can be found on COPR at https://src.fedoraproject.org/fork/fepitre/rpms/thunderbird/commits/tb78. I needed to generate cbindgen-vendor and langpacks archives on my own and uploaded them to my mirror. I patched TB source to use CK_GCM_PARAMS_V3 instead of CK_GCM_PARAMS as described in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NssGCMParams. I've encountered an issue with wrongly detected crate attributes as shebangs so I simply removed executable bit on those source files. I hope my branch could help Thunderbird maintainers to made it into Fedora.

If I can help into this task for Fedora, don't hesitate to ask me

Best regards,
Frédéric

Comment 22 Nick Bebout 2020-09-25 18:05:47 UTC
Are you planning to update this soon?  This version adds OAuth2 support which would be really nice to have.  I'd hope to see this go in to Fedora 33.

Comment 23 Edgar Hoch 2020-09-25 18:39:48 UTC
I think the question is:
Is the implementation of OpenPGP in thunderbird a real working replacement for enigmail for the all or at least a majority of the users?
Is the migration from enigmail to OpenPGP in the linux implementation easy enough for most of Fedora users?

E-mail is important to many people, especially in academic and business area, but also in private use.
It should work for standard users, not only for computer experts.

At this point, I think the question is basically moot.  Thunderbird 68 is end of life at the end of September, and will not be receiving security updates.  So we have two days to get Thunderbird 78 packaged and published.  Please start building the new RPMs immediately.

Comment 27 Nerijus 2020-09-30 18:38:05 UTC
Got Thunderbird upgrade to 78.3.0 on CentOS 8. Unfortunately it does not work. The application launches, but only its menus and buttons are displayed, but they do not function at all. Nothing happens clicking any of them. Also, no email messages are displayed that were present prior upgrade. Would appreciate a little bit more testing before releasing such an upgrade.

Comment 38 Lyes Saadi 2020-10-06 09:51:14 UTC
I think you should push f33's update manually (unless someone adds one more karma) or request a freeze exception. Final freeze is tomorrow, and since 78 is already on stable for f32, this would break, permanently, all users' Thunderbird configuration on update by downgrading them to 68.

Sincerely,
Someone whose config already broke few weeks ago because of this reason.

Comment 39 Lyes Saadi 2020-10-06 10:55:59 UTC
This is no longer needed, the update just got the necessary karma!
