Note that the update to thunderbird 78 breaks tinyjsd and jsunit.

>From TinyJSD's homepage¹:

  « Note: due to the massive and rapid changes in the Mozilla Platform,
TinyJSD is no longer actively maintained. The last version supports
Thunderbird 60/SeaMonkey 2.57. We recommend to use the standard
Developer Tools that are shipped with Thunderbird. »

>From the enigmail-users mailing list²:

  « I did not port JSUnit to TB 78. »

Consequently, in the update I have marked thunderbird as breaking
tinyjsd and jsunit, and replacing tinyjsd.

thunderbird 78.5.0 currently in focal-proposed is blocked¹:

  ◦ Issues preventing migration:
  ◦ autopkgtest for jsunit/0.2.2-2: amd64: Regression ♻ , arm64: Regression ♻ , 
armhf: Regression ♻ , i386: Ignored failure, ppc64el: Regression ♻ , s390x: Not 
a regression
  ◦ migrating thunderbird/1:78.5.0+build3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1/amd64 to testing 
makes tinyjsd/1.2+git1-1/amd64 uninstallable

I would welcome help from the SRU team to decide the best course of
action to unblock this situation.
