Thunderbird-lightning Version Incompatibility

[Jonathan Ryshpan]

The current versions of thunderbird and thunderbird-lightning, namely
      * thunderbird-24.2.0-2
      * thunderbird-lightning-2.6.2-3
don't seem to be compatible.  

My system's thunderbird-lightning calendar stopped working today in its
first invocation since upgrading thunderbird.  I was able to revive it
by:
      * erasing thunderbird-lightning from the system using yum
      * installing lightning 2.6.4 from inside thunderbird
      * logging out and then logging in again (restarting thunderbird
        didn't work)

Has anyone else noticed this nonsense?

Thanks - jon
