Sorry if I’m being overly impatient, but is there some snag with releasing Thunderbird 68.10.0 for EL8?

[RHSA-2020:3038-01] Important: thunderbird security update

Thanks!

  • We have been working non-stop for the last several days on the embargoed kernel, grub2, and other secure boot items (that is .. the ‘Boot Hole’
    issue) for el7 and el8 for the .. therefore some other updates were pushed back.

    I am trying to finish up the ‘Boot Hole’ el7 updates right now .. 2
    other people are currently working on the el8 items.

    Once these get pushed .. hopefully tonight .. we will be working on the other updates starting tomorrow.

    Thanks, Johnny Hughes

  • First, thank you for all the efforts that went into the Boot Hole / shim issue.  I’m sorry for the bad PR CentOS got for it.  I do hope upstream will not have more occurrences of the like…historically, they’ve been very reliable, which is why it is my choice of OS.

    Just a friendly reminder Thunderbird 68.10 hasn’t been released for CentOS 8.

    And I see RHEL has announced Thunderbird 68.11.0:   https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2020:3341

    I do hope the day will come where we can meet so I can thank you in person.  It would be a great pleasure buy you a beer / meal / t-shirt.

    Best regards, Chris
