kappfinder
Thunderbird 78.10.1 was released almost two weeks ago and Debian has not updated the package as of last night. The other day, I installed Snap (via the Debian 'snapd' package) to try to install the Thunderbird package via Snap.
Although the Snap Thunderbird package appeared to install (no errors were displayed during installation), it was not on any of the TDE menus afterward.
Is there a trick to having packages installed through Snap to display on the appropriate TDE menu?
Thanks in advance.

Didn't get that far. It will now not reinstall from snap (but will download):

I was able to get Thunderbird installed via the Ubuntuzilla repository at SourceForge. It shows it's on the Release update channel, so I trust it will update automatically from now on.

Was going through some old messages...
Thunderbird, as well as Firefox and SeaMonkey are updating automatically via Synaptic through the Ubuntuzilla repo. No issues. :)
