GContactSync, which is the only working extension recommended by Thunderbird to sync Google contacts (https://support.mozilla.org/en- US/kb/thunderbird-and-gmail), doesn't work yet in version 78 (https://github.com/jdgeenen/gcontactsync/issues/163). An upgrade to 78 may lead to unexpected breakage for many.

I've successfully built 78.2.1 against both with forcing nodejs version (20.04, 18.04) and disabling AV1 support due to too old nasm (18.04). Attaching debdiffs here.
