The update is ready, and the blocker was an update to stretch, which has already
happen. So I believe we are ready, and this could happen anytime now.
However since we don't have a working enigmail, should we delay the update until
we do? Given the security issues in thunderbird and the fact that the new
version has a Breaks on the old enigmail, I would say that we can go ahead with
thunderbird, and enigmail can be fixed asynchronously. However if the update is
not too far ahead, we could also delay this a bit longer.
Thoughts?
