Bug Description

firefox-globalmenu is an empty transitional package that was needed on Ubuntu 14.04. Now that trusty is EOL, it can be safely removed (see https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-trunk.head/view/head:/debian/control.in#L132).

NOTE TO SRU TEAM: Please do not release this package without consulting first. This is a security update pushed via -proposed to get a bit more testing. Will be released via it's own processes.

Hello Olivier, or anyone else affected,

Accepted thunderbird into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/1:68.2.1+build1-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.
