This would be a conflict with some other addon or theme, or a problem with gContactSync itself.

Have you contacted the author of the addon?

Not yet. As it works in previous versions of TB, I assume that it is not related to addon. I use this addon for many years...

Now is a good time to check - add-on requirements change over time

Add-ons need to adapt to a few changes in Mozilla/TB:

Please contact the author.

He didn't replied. Could someone check if it is an add-on issue or TB issue?

Unfortunately the author's website does not show a list of reported bugs. But https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/gcontactsync/ does not show any recent updates.  Still, 99.99% chance the add-on is at fault
