Now that the new version was released to the "updates" channel I tried a regular Update using the default Ubuntu update-manager GUI. I don't have tinyjsd or jsunit installed so I expected everything to go smoothly.
Instead the update-manager proposes a partial system update to install the thunderbird version and REMOVE the enigmail package (see screenshot). I suspect, this would not migrate my enigmail keys. If I understood it right there should be a new version for the enigmail package as well, which handles the migration of the encryption keys to the new internal PGP implementation. Is the update for the enigmail package still stuck somewhere? @racb posted earlier that the two packages should be updated together: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1895643/comments/33 ** Attachment added: "update-manager proposes to remove Enigmail" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1895643/+attachment/5466601/+files/update-manager.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1895643 Title: Backport Thunderbird 78 to 20.04 LTS and 18.04 LTS Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in jsunit source package in Bionic: Confirmed Status in thunderbird source package in Bionic: Confirmed Status in jsunit source package in Focal: Fix Released Status in thunderbird source package in Focal: Fix Released Status in tinyjsd source package in Focal: Fix Released Status in thunderbird source package in Groovy: Fix Released Bug description: Upstream Thunderbird version 78.2.2 should be a candidate for backporting to stable Ubuntu releases.
