Thanks for this bug report. It seems that Icedove 31.7 landed in stable and testing ~3 months ago, so I'm kinda surprised that nobody else reported this problem to Debian. popcon is low, but still.

I think it is indeed fixed in 0.1.4 and it seems that Ben has confirmed it. Do you have time to take care of it? Or should we look into other options (e.g. pkg-moz-ext, as suggested a while ago, and/or the new pkg-privacy team)? I don't have time in the next week or two - no.

I think based on timing it had to be 0.1.4 if it was installed from addons.mozilla.org. Let me know if I can help with anything to facilitate the package being updated.

Bug#793987: xul-ext-torbirdy: Torbirdy options not visible in Icedove 31.7.0
Package: xul-ext-torbirdy Version: 0.1.3-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Dear Maintainer, I recently installed Torbirdy using the pkg xul-ext-torbirdy in order to have connection to system tor by default. When I open icedove, I do not see the typical green text at the bottom of the status bar stating Torbirdy Enabled: Tor... so I purged the pkg and reinstalled, with no change. I then purged the pkg again and installed from Icedove add-ons, and it worked as intended, albeit it uses the wrong port (9150) for Tor instead of system tor's 9050 as discussed in previous bug reports. I much prefer to use the system Tor since tor for jessie/stable has been built with seccomp sandboxing capability while I'm not sure if Tor for TBB has. Let me know if I can help with anything to facilitate the package being updated.
