I want to pop up @rokku comment. Current stable release is 128.2.0esr. Versions: 129, 130 and 131 are still beta. @bittin please downgrade the package. Check: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/releases/

Something is strange. In the about dialog of thunderbird it says: "Thunderbird Beta is up to date" - Is this a beta version?

I have tested further. If I download thunderbird from the sources link of your PKGBUILD and start it with a fresh profile i get the following message:

"This is an unsupported version of Thunderbird!! Thunderbird monthly releases are not considered stable for general use. Use at your own risk, this build is the same quality as Thunderbird Beta."

The result is, that some of my extensions do not work because they give me the notice: This extension does not work with thunderbird 129 beta.

Could you please check this?

Update: On Reddit an official Thunderbird Employee states that tb 129 is not a release: https://www.reddit.com/r/Thunderbird/comments/1em7wb5/comment/lh14suo

So this is a beta version not 129 stable. It is the same issue as with 125 earlier this year. please roll back to latest 128 version of tb

Aha, so 128ESR, 129 current release, 130 is beta. ok. Got a little bit confused about the Thunderbird team switching to a Firefox-like release cycle. :-)

@andreas_baumann:nope the Beta version is now 130

Isn't 129 the beta version?

@andreas_baumann: they promote it on the homepage because it's the latest version. you can see that in the xml feed in the releases page you linked. what one might want to "ask them" is why their releases page isn't up to date.

as for arch upstream, it's flagged as out of date. it's also compiled from source, which makes it a more complex task than just bumping the url and adjusting the .desktop file.

edit: update, the release page now includes 128.0.1esr

On https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/releases/ 115.13.0 is the newest release. Why Thunderbird starts to promote 128.0.1-esr on their main page, you have to ask them.

Also upstream https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/thunderbird/ has 115.12.2-1.

115.13.0 seems fine for me right now.
