The german language pack is not compatible with thunderbird versions 60+.

The same happens to me with the italkian package which is still 52.9.1-1

I found language packs here:
https://releases.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/60.0/linux-x86_64/xpi/

The thunderbird package itself has to be modified like firefox as well:

// Use LANG environment variable to choose locale
pref("intl.locale.requested", "");

For now, I added this preference manually in about:config (Settings -> Advanced -> Button Config Editor)

By the way, the lightning language is still missing.

thunderbird-i18n-fr 60.0-2 don't work.
TB stay in english language

thunderbird-i18n-cs 60.0-2 don't work too. TB stay in english language

Well, thunderbird-i18n-zh-tw 60.0-2 works. I installed https://releases.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/60.0/linux-i686/xpi/zh-TW.xpi manually yesterday, though. Of course I removed the manually installed one before installing the Arch Linux language package.

See my last comment. You have to manually set "intl.locale.requested" to an empty string. The Thunderbird package is not doing it yet.

FWIW, my "intl.locale.requested" is "zh-TW".
Comment by Andrea Amorosi (AndreaA) - Friday, 10 August 2018, 10:04 GMT
it works perfectly now.
"intl.locale.requested" is empty

Can someone confirm that 60.0-3 works as expected?
Comment by Alois Nespor (anespor) - Friday, 10 August 2018, 11:59 GMT
Yes, for me works again. (the lightning language is still missing)
Comment by Patrick Legeron (patricklegeron) - Friday, 10 August 2018, 12:07 GMT
Not work for me in french language
thunderbird 60.0-3 and language 60.0-2
intl.locale.requested : empty

clean installation (= new profile) of thunderbird-60.0-3 works https://i.imgur.com/zMyglf6.png

Thunderbird 60.0-3 works here with the german language pack.

As for lightning I use this until upstream fixes it. https://gist.github.com/progandy/ce857358c4f3b8eb09887a085e4bea30

Feel free to report l10n for lightning separately but I'm unlikely to do anything about it.
