Thunderbird3 in Fedora11?

will Thunderbird3 make it into Fedora11 or No? any ideas when we may find this out for sure if it makes it in?

I don't think it will. Though it might. Current version is TB 2.0.0.18.

The real question is when Thunderbird 3 will be ready. I don't expect sooner than F13. That is, if we get lucky...

 rpm -q thunderbird
thunderbird-2.0.0.19-1.fc10.i386

Nok:

The only FC11 build is still 2.0.0.18.

Erm...strange. Perhaps a report in Bugzilla would be appropriate ?

Fedora13? i doubt that. i would expect it to make it in Fedora11 if not 12, Fedora9 came with a beta of Firefox3 then got updated to the final, so if TB3 beta2 is the last beta i cant see why it wont get packaged for Fedora11 but i havent heard anything that states that TB3 Beta2 will be the last beta , but im sure there already working on tb3.1 with gecko 1.9.2

$ ls
firefox-3.2a1pre.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2
thunderbird-3.0b2pre.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2

These can be downloaded almost every day and installed into useryou space/
/home/useryou/workspace/firefox
/homeuseryou/workspace/thunderbird

The last folder is created in workspace by the file roller archive tool.
Then just create a launder than points to the program inside

/home/useryou/workspace/thunderbird/thunderbird %U

Then automatic updates will popup as they occur.

thats what i might do if TB isnt in Fedora11 cause i like the way it handles Mail now & its smaller in size than Evolution is

Hi,

Thunderbird 3 has been approved as a feature for Fedora 11

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Thunderbird_3

thanks Rahul, i kinda thought it may have been cause Firefox3.1 is now doing a beta4 which meant Thunderbird3 should make its way in

Thunderbird 3 (3.0-1.beta2.fc11) looks great ;-) But it disables Lightning extension for me (0.9-6.fc11). Please, does anybody know, how to enable it? Probably it's really not compatible and I can wait for new version of Lightning or downgrade TB on v2.

you may need this http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.o...ral/win32-xpi/ to install the updated calandar an lightning

[cgrim]

Thanks for your help, but this is not for me - there is no XPI for 64bit linux and 32bit cannot be installed.
So I have to learn how to build nightly version of Lightning for myslef from sources ... ;-)
