@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat* (since 136, was it?)06:42:51
@hexa:lossy.networkhexayeah, the esr-bin was lagging behind as well sadly06:42:54

@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatRight, I'm not watching -bin.06:43:36

Newer thunderbird-latest(-unwrapped) didn't seem to work well, so it remains rotting. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/382444#issuecomment-2661364204
Should we guide users towards ESR with a warning then (assuming the profile is compatible with downgrades)?
07:05:38
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatESR is the default thunderbird.07:05:59
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatBut maybe we could mark -latest as insecure.07:06:38
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatI'm testing everything with a single profile, so downgrades should be OK.07:06:59

ESR is the default thunderbird.
Some people have -latest in their config and may not be aware that it is randomly 2 months out of date.
07:12:17
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatAnother option is to just merge the updates.07:13:20
@aloisw:julia0815.de@aloisw:julia0815.deIf downgrades are supported, marking it insecure seems fine.07:13:35

I don't think this is a good option if the updates are broken and ESR is fine.

@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatFirefox 136 should happen in 4 days, so we could hope that TB 136 fixes this.07:16:50
@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickensI'm going to test the nixpkgs-mozilla smaller PR against some old/newer nixpkgs and merge it.16:47:55
