1908307 - Thunderbird has been updated to old version on Flathub

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1908299

(Thunderbird :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[jgajmuky]

Steps to reproduce:

The command ‘flatpak update’ was executed via GNOME Terminal (same effect probably via the automatic update via GNOME Software).

Actual results:

The previously installed version 128.0esr has been ‘updated’ to version 115.13.0esr. This causes Thunderbird to report that the profile is not compatible and expects the user to create a new profile.

Expected results:

Thunderbird should not simply be rolled back to a much older version. Users are currently unable to start Thunderbird or have to create a new profile, which should be more than annoying.

Please update to 128.0esr as soon as possible so that previously updated Thunderbird installations can run properly again!

Thank you very much!
