Anyone have any idea about this affects Linux? I am using Mint, and in the past the suggestion has always been "update through your repository" not with a download...
Is it different this time for some reason?
- nine_k 8y agoI suppose distros haven't packaged it yet.
- RobertRoberts 8y agoSure, that is par for the course... normally. But I've never been told. "Don't upgrade from version X to version Y" before, which is why I am asking if I need to do something different this time. (ie, not wait for distro update, because none will be coming...??)
- zerocrates 8y agoI think it's just saying it won't come up in Thunderbird's own internal updater for now. This shouldn't affect you if you've been installing/updating from a package manager.
