Install with APT - !NEW REPOSITORY!

The apt-sources for my packages are hosted at:
people.debian.org

add the following lines to your sources.list
file.

  deb http://people.debian.org/~asac/stable ./
  deb-src http://people.debian.org/~asac/stable ./

After adding those lines you have to update your local package meta info database using:

    $ apt-get update

Thunderbird 1.0.x – New

If you are running a sarge distribution use

    $ apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird

Extensions & Language Packages

Available extension & language packages are listed in my
EXTENSIONS corner.
to get the packages from the apt source listed
above, do a

    $ apt-get install <packagename>

in order to install the desired extension.

B>New APT-Repository – as some might have noticed, I have not been lucky to find a new suitable mirror for my preview packages. In fact I had no time to really look out for one. So here we go with an intermediate solution! I have opened an apt repository on people.debian.org. My repository is hosted at:

  deb http://people.debian.org/~asac/testing ./
  deb-src http://people.debian.org/~asac/testing ./

But again, this is no final solution, so be aware that this address is likely to change at some point in the near future.

mentors.debian.net kicked the binary package support. Thus I am on the run for a new mirror to release my preview packages. Any help is of course welcome. I hope to come up with a solution soon.

• security issues in mozilla-thunderbird < v0.7.3 – update your packages ASAP. Grab the new packages for sarge from here or wait until the 0.7.3-1 packages hit your preferred official sid mirror!
