I do not argue with that, I'm just saying (ranting) that, knowing 102 likely breaks installed addons, it seems to me that at least an announcement on devel list prior to push it into a stable release would have been appreciated. Moreover, thunderbird in on the critical path update list; Bodhi requires 14 days of testing for those packages, but it is set to require only +2 karma, so packagers easily bypass the testing phase, like it is clearly happened here (pushed to stable just after 5 hours). I think critpath updates should spend more time in testing, maybe we should increase the critpath min karma to, at least, +5.
