Description

Steps to reproduce:

Clicking add-on in Thunderbird Add-Ons Manager shows an "about" page that needs update.

Actual results:

Text on "about" page follows:

=====================================================
Lighting 4.0.5.2 for Thunderbird 38 is available here

Lightning also supports older versions of Thunderbird like 24 or 31, please see the complete version history for details.

Expected results:

@mozcalendar hasn't tweeted since 2015 - Lightning is well past v4.0.5.2. An update to this text is long overdue. This should be an easy fix, but I don't know where to look to find the source that needs to be updated. I searched code repository but can't seem to find the specific file that contains this text.

This seems to be INVALID as the add-on is pulling this info from the respective add-on author's site, not from within TB code. Better to contact the author and tell them to update the respective site.

Comment 2

[Martin Schröder [:mschroeder]]

There is a message on the add-on page for Lightning:

==================================================
Lightning is no longer required on Thunderbird 78 and above.
This listing is only maintained for Thunderbird 68 and below.
==================================================

Maybe this issue can be markes as resolved now?

Yes, I would think (or no longer valid).
