now things are clear.
MZLNA decided to not officially release 78.15.0 and postpone this
completely.

Means I will go down the road and try to prepare Thunderbird >= 91.2.x
for unstable/testing/stable/oldstable.

unstable/testing wont be a problem, bullseye mostly also not, but for
buster I'm not sure if the current conditions are fine, I guess they are
not.
