Title:
  Thunderbird's extension manager doesn't play well with apt

Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Adding an extension via Thunderbird's extension manager (e.g.
  Enigmail) breaks or can be broken by installing the same plugin via
  apt-get/dpkg. If Thunderbird is going to be the default mail client in
  Oneiric, some sort of workaround (disabling the extension manager?)
  should be considered, to avoid having users break Thunderbird or,
  worse, break OS upgrades.
