Title:
[SRU request] Update Thunderbird to 115.x (as 102.x is EOL)
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[ Impact ]
* The Thunderbird 102.x series has its final release (12.15.0)
planned for release on August 30th. After that, the 102.x series will
no longer receive critical security updates. Due to the size and
complexity of the Mozilla/Thunderbird codebase, it is extremely
unlikely that the Ubuntu team could take on the task of backporting
patches to new security issues once official support for the 102.x
series has ended.
* Updating to Thunderbird 115.x in all currently-supported Ubuntu
releases will make sure users stay secure.
* It should be noted that 115.x does make changes to the interface.
While all these changes are ostensibly for the better, normally this
level of change would disqualify an application from getting SRUed.
However, running an EOL email client is a security/privacy risk to
users that can't be ignored.

[ Test Plan ]
Not sure, I'm just a user
[ Where problems could occur ]
* New major release, usual concerns apply
[ Other Info ]
* I'm guessing that this SRU was already planned to happen eventually, but
since I couldn't find an official request, here we are
