Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Thunderbird provided as Snap - Plan for Linux Mint 22 and next versions

[Angedestenebres]

Hello,

I have a bad news for Linux Mint 22, Ubuntu continues with their snapization and the next candidate is Thunderbird, see: https://news.itsfoss.com/thunderbird-snap/
It's planned for the next stable release, that means for the LTS 24.04 and we will have an issue on Linux Mint due to that.

Do you have a plan to include it in Linux Mint repo like Firefox? Or do you use the flatpak instead?

Thanks in advance for your answer.

We'll package it ourselves like Firefox. Someone pointed this out yesterday, I've already started working on the build.
