Package: xul-ext-firetray
Version: 0.6.1+dfsg-1.1
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable
Alas, with the new thunderbird upload, the extension stopped working again.
Fortunately, no code changes are needed, but the supported version still
needs updating.
The fix to #906852 I NMUed recently says:
<em:maxVersion>60.0</em:maxVersion>
which is no good for a point release of 60.
Alas, we can't bump the version too far, as Thunderbird's upstream debates
whether to drop XUL or not; it's likely they will as it's hard to support it
without help from Mozilla. So far the last version reported to work is 62;
Debian doesn't upload non-LTS thunderbirds so this doesn't really matter.
Still, it'd be good to declare future point releases of 62 as supported.
Thus, here's a patch that sets the maxVersion to 62.9999.
Meow!

Description: bump TB versions
Current thunderbird in unstable, 60.2.1-1, already fails the version check.
The newest reported version that Firetray works with is 62; let's use
"62.9999" then (no idea if there's some equivalent of ~ for Mozilla).
