thunderbird reports

While repology tries its best in matching packages across different repositories, this is quite a complex task:

Packages of a single software project may be named differently in some repositories (for instance, libagg vs. agg, dungeoncrawl vs. dungeon-crawl, fonts-linuxlibertine vs. fonts-ttf-linuxlibertine vs. linux-libertine-fonts vs. linuxlibertine-fonts-ttf).
There may be multiple unrelated software projects with a same name (for instance, clementine is both X11 window manager and a media player).
Some packages may use incorrect versions (for instance, picking "next" version number which was not released yet when packaging a git snapshot, or using dates and commit hashes instead of version numbers).

Repology uses a set of manually edited rules to resolve these cases. You may submit a change to the ruleset directly or use this form to suggest an improvement to the ruleset. Please only use this for problems which may be fixed by the ruleset (which are basically problems listed above).

The project needs some version(s) to be marked as ignored
Comment:
Hi. So Mozilla now has some form of clarity. At https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/all/, selecting the "Thunderbird Release" (currently 132.0.1) channel shows a message "Thunderbird Release is available for testing purposes only until releases are deemed stable enough for official support. Make sure you backup important data regularly!".

Then the ESR version (currently 128.4.3) should be marked as the actual stable?

Also, there are many legacy versions in repology that should all be removed?

> Mozilla must clarify this.
Product Details feed says 115.12.2: https://product-details.mozilla.org/1.0/thunderbird_versions.json
Thunderbird download page takes you to 115.12.2: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-GB/thunderbird/all/

What's there to clarify? 127.0 was not officially released.
Repology reply:
Clarification is when a project member explains the situation.

Ah actually 127 is beta release, so should be marked devel? https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/127.0beta/releasenotes/
Repology reply:
Mozilla must clarify this. According to https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/ there were five 127bN releases, followed by 127 without `b` suffix, which in my eyes suggest it's no longer beta. It may be that NNN.0 is considered beta too, but I'd like to know for sure.

As per https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/releases/, latest release is 115.12.2. Not sure how KaOS or Slackware are getting version 127.0.

Latest stable release is 102.0.3:

Listed as latest, 102.1.0 is only an unstable Release Candidate

Comment:
at the time of this writing, 68.8.0 is a release candidate, but freebsd is using the release versioning. Perhaps FreeBSD should be ignored by rule (similar to what they do with firefox)

New report

Needs version ignore

Check if the latest version detected for this project is incorrect (e.g. a non-existing version, version with incorrect format, version with date or a git commit hash) and should be ignored. Please provide a prooflink for unapparent cases (e.g. a list of VCS tags or official site mentioning actual latest version).

Prerequisites:

If upstream does not tag/publish official releases, please submit an issue asking them to do so first.

Needs split

Check if this entry refers to multiple unrelated projects and thus needs to be split into multiple entries. Naming suggestions for new projects are welcome.

Will not split:

Legacy or ESR branches of the same project.
*-unclassified projects which lack valid homepage information.
Maintained forks of abandoned projects, unless a fork has known fatal drawbacks.

Needs merge

Check if there are other Repology entries for the same project under different names which should be merged into one. Please list them in the comment field, as well as suggested target name.

Will not merge:

Modules (e.g. python) without consistent prefix (such as python- or python3-) (common problem for Slackbuilds and Debian source packages).
go:* packages, which have no official naming scheme.
Packages with incorrect names (should be renamed in repositories instead).
Lots of package variants (common for AUR and Nix) - repositories are expected to provide master project name for these.

Needs vulnerability information update

Check if there are known older CVEs (vulnerabilities) which are not listed in CVEs section for this project. Note that there's expected lag of CVE information propagation so there's no need to report very recent CVEs. The idea is to fill missing CPE bindings which allow matching both past and future vulnerabilities to projects.

Will not accept:

Reports for recent CVEs which have not been analyzed by NVD yet (so please check NVD first).
Reports for incorrect version ranges - please report these to NVD.
