thunderbird 6 with lightning plugin

[da1]

Hi guys,

Did anyone have any luck with this ? The deskutils/lightning-thunderbird only works with Thunderbrd 3 and deskutils/lightning prints:

===>  lightning-1.0_2 is marked as broken: unsatisfiable depobj.
*** Error code 1

Hi, as You can see deskutils/lightning package is marked as BROKEN, which means that it won't compile. "Packages for a broken port are not built by the package cluster." Therefore, pkg_add(1) will not work.
Lightning is also marked as IGNORE (see package info on freshports.org site) which also means, that probably it would/does not build.

More info about BROKEN/IGNORE marks You will find here; broken and ignore.

I hope that I helped you in some way. Best regards!

Looking into mail/thunderbird/Makefile reveals an option for lightning (disabled by default).

OPTIONS=	LIGHTNING       "Enable calendar extension" off

Try # make config inside /usr/ports/mail/thunderbird and activate the lightning option.

You could try building from source. Latest release source code is 1.0b5.
Port is 1.0b1, if I'm not mistaken.

I did compile thunderbird6 with that option but makes no difference. I'm receiving calendar meetings and I get text instead of the entry in the calendar.
