Mozilla-Thunderbird Security Update: 17.0.5 or 17.0.6 (Slackware64 14.0 Stable)?


The Slackware Security notice has 17.0.5 for Slackware64 14.0 stable; is it supposed to be 17.0.6?

Looks kind of odd.

I noticed that too. The mail to the security list mentions 17.0.6, but the package is not in the FTP, only 17.0.5.

Sorry about that mistake. The packages are up now, and another advisory is on the way out.

I applied the update to Slackware 14 this morning, and the version now installed is 17.0.6.

Edit: Ah, but mine was 32-bit, not 64.

No problem at all. Just downloaded 17.0.6 and everything is ok, as usual. Many thanks for your efforts.
