[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#869790: thunderbird: throws SyntaxError in various (packaged) addons, e.g. enigmail and calendar-exchange-provider

[Moritz Schlarb]

Package: thunderbird
Version: 1:52.2.1-4~deb8u1
Severity: important

Since tonights upgrade to 52.2.1-4~deb8u1, I can't use the enigmail addon for
Thunderbird anymore.

The JS error console shows:

SyntaxError: missing ] after element list[Learn More]  enigmailCore.jsm:334:32
SyntaxError: missing ] after element list[Learn More]  msgHdrUtils.js:219:21
SyntaxError: missing ] after element list[Learn More]  enigmailCore.jsm:334:32

The respective line 334 from enigmailCore.jsm is:

    rStr += [getQuoted(args[i]) for (i in args)].join(" ").replace(/\\\\/g,
'\\');

which seems reasonably bracketed to me - I suspect there is a problem with the
parsing of nested square brackets?
