thunderbird builds on armhf now. s390x is the only release architecture where it doesn't build.

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/1:52.4.0+build1-0ubuntu2

summary: - FTBFS on armhf and s390x in Artful

Hello Balint,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with building Thunderbird. You made this bug report some time ago and there have been several versions of Ubuntu and Thunderbird since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to this bug?
If you are, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect BUGNUMBER
and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.
G

This was fixed a while ago.
Note that no real testing is done on s390x as it's not a supported desktop platform, but at least the package builds there.
