Hi,
I had the same problem, and still had it with 24.1.0. Then I found this 
workaround which solves the problem. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
a. mv ~/.thunderbird in ~/.thunderbird.old
b. update thunderbird (I had to do it as root)
c. run the new version of thunderbird (as user), skipping all the suggestions 
to create an email account
d. install lightning (I also installed google calendar provider; you may need 
to reinstall more)
e. restart thunderbird
f. copied back everithing from ~/.thunderbird.old/<some random string> 
~/.thunderbird to the new ~/.thunderbird/<some other random string> besides the 
following:
_CACHE_CLEAN_  chrome  extensions  extensions.ini  TestPilotExperimentFiles

Note that I COPIED and not MOVED them back, because in case of problems I 
wanted to be able to delete the new ~/.thunderbird directory without losing 
anything. Maybe I could have copied back some more file, but everything seems 
to work.
So in my opinion, there is some file left from old installs in those 
directories, that disturbs the new version of Lightning. Anyway, now everything 
works fine for me
