This package now attempts to build the latest available beta. The version auto updates on build, similar to git packages. There is technically no longer any need for version bumps. However, I plan to check and bump the package approximately once a month.

Actually, this is not the reason, specifically for Thunderbird. They just want (and that is the right thing to do) the Thunderbird version to reflect the version of the (much) common code they share with Firefox.

"Umm", check the source url :). It says "31-May-2011 17:39". E: Yeah, and if you wonder _why_ did they jump 'over' 4.0 the answer is the same as with firefox (where the stable is 4.0, beta is 5.0b3 and the nightly is 7.0a1). They just have begun using the same development cycle as Google has with Chrome/Chromium. I suppose they reckon not only will it speed-up development but also the users like the rapid release cycle.

Umm, when did this become 5.0b1 ? Last time I checked, it was 3.3a3...

Hunspell 1.3 rebuild - amongst other minor changes.

Now builds with system cairo/nspr. Libnotify seems to be needed only in the buildtime. I still got "You have X new messages" notifications without libnotify.

Made a bug report: http://code.google.com/p/firetray/issues/detail?id=156 , in case anyone is interested.

So far so good. Notifications via libnotify seem to work, and I saw no graphical glitches (compiled with --enable-system-cairo). Unfortunately firetray (0.2.8 and 0.2.9-dev) doesn't work. The install.rdf says the max version is 3.2.*. I changed that to 3.3.*, but the icon doesn't show up in the tray.

>Nah, I can wait for this to compile. You say that now but you'll get fed up with it in the end :). Especially if a new version was released later that day with just a tiny tiny fix that makes the whole program to actually start up. About cairo (1.10.2), I'm not sure. It's still disabled with [extra]'s thunderbird, though. You can test that on the same go, if you like.
