Public bug reported:

Installing xul-ext-gdata-provider gives an outdated version of Provider for Google Calendar extension for Thunderbird Lightning, which doesn't work with latest Google API anymore, which makes the package unusable.
The package installs v. 0.32 of the extension (as seen in Thunderbird > Tools > Add-ons), which, quoting the author of the extension:

"After a previous announcement, Google has shut down the v1 API today
(November 17th) that version 0.32 and 0.25 has been using. This means
those versions will no longer work and you MUST upgrade to 1.0.x to
continue using the Provider for Google Calendar."

And in fact, since yesterday Thunderbird Lightning on my system was
unable to communicate with Google Calendar. Today I upgraded to the
latest version of Porvider for Google Calendar, and now it works even
better than before.

The newest version of the extension, currently 1.0.2, is available at
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/provider-for-google-
calendar/ and I would suggest an upgrade of the package's content.

I am running Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn, but I see Vivid still has the
same package version. And I guess a good I idea would be to backport the
update to Trusty and Precise, too.

Thank you very much!
