Description Grant Edwards 2023-10-11 19:33:26 UTC
The only reason I use Thunderbird is to access an Exchange server using the OWL plugin.  That has worked beautifully for years (up through 115.3.1), but it's completely broken with 115.3.2.

Please, please, restore the ebuild for 115.3.1.
Comment 1 Grant Edwards 2023-10-11 21:53:03 UTC
Just to be clear, I'm not requesting that the 115.3.2 ebuild be removed (or even masked).  Just put the 115.3.1 ebuild back for a while so that it can be used by people for whom 115.3.2 won't work.

    Revert "mail-client/thunderbird-bin: drop 115.3.1"
    
    This reverts commit c2d16ba798b7a810ce92034746e8ea30841e43a3.
    
    Restore 115.3.1. Apparently 115.3.2 doesn't work too well for everyone.

The source version isn't bumped yet, I assumed you meant the -bin version? 

Do you have an upstream bug I can track the issue, so that 115.3.1 can be dropped when a fix is released?

fwiw, if it's urgent for personal use in future, can do e.g. https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Downgrading_a_package_to_removed_version

(the bug report is still welcome/useful/important, but that page may help you if you need to get up and running fast)
