Not difficult, but not a smooth experience having to manually intervene, rather than the repo taking care of it as part of the update.Lightning is part of thunderbird now. So I would recommend removing the addon installed manually and using our package xul-ext-lightning. This assures no breakage as this package is built everytime we build a new thunderbird package.

Yep, i know you posted about it before, & indeed i did install that package back then. Why didn't it work for me? All i can tell you is that after doing the new update today, TB launched without Lightning. The only way i could see to get my Calendar & Tasks back was to do what i told you. Having now read your reply, i removed Lightning from TB, closed TB, opened Synaptic, reinstalled package xul-ext-lightning, relaunched TB ... still no Lightning!!
What should i do now pls? Maybe remove TB entirely then reinstall it?

The new TB now ignores my personal settings, & just uses the drab standard boring GTK grey colours.Upstream changed theme handling again (in sync with the firefox 52 theme changes). Though in my tests I did not see any completely different/broken theme using the default theme we provide.
Well, it [TB] doesn't respect my Plasma theme here now. Interestingly i now discovered this cool Add-In, Theme Font & Size Changer, & i'm happy enough with what it's done for me.
