Apparently it’s a metadata bug, K9 shouldn’t be listed as Thunderbird. See comments ITT.

Yes.
Hot tip. You can enable ‘Install extension from file’ in mobile Firefox apps (Firefox, Fennec, Mull etc) by going to Settings > About Firefox (or About Fennec etc) > Tapping the name 5 times.
You should see a message about debug mode being enabled and the ‘Install extention from file’ option should be in the Advanced section of your brower settings.
In F-Droid (not sure about Play or other app stores) K9 v8.0 (and above I guess) is now listed as Thunderbird Beta for Testers. I and possibly others thought that the K9 version of the app would keep it’s branding all the way through, including it’s listing name or title in various app stores. Perhaps it wont or perhaps it’s a listing error. We’ll see.
FYI this is from 2022 but is relevant because Thunderbird (and K9 v8) just landed in F-Droid (and other android package managers I guess but I haven’t checked).
The process of importing from K9 Mail worked without issue for me. There is also the option to import from desktop using a QR scanner (or some kind of scanner, again I didn’t go down that rabbit hole).
Python is used extensively in Linux distributions and in some or a lot of cases for distribution package management. In order to avoid breaking your ‘externally managed’ system pip is warning you and providing an easy to use method for using it and any packages you install through it.
Perfect Christmas gift idea
I hope that floating navbar style doesn’t become mainstream. Distracting to the point of making me sick.
You mean like SELinux or other existing contributions to the linux kernel?
There may be any number of reasons why the disk is not an option. You may want to update your post body with the model of your computer in case someone has had a similar experience and can give you a heads up about what to do.
As a quick test you might want to flash another distribution image to the USB and see if that gives you the option to install to the system drive (you don’t have to install, just check if the option is available). It’s an easy way to find out if it’s a quirk of the distribution installer or something about your computer such as bios setting etc.
Are you trying to install while booted into Windows? If so that’s not how to install Linux from a bootable USB.
Drew DeVault noted the same in So you want to compete with or replace open source.
I think having ‘Open’ in the name muddies the waters a bit though. The full name almost makes the project sound anti open source, which it isn’t.
At first glance they seem to be. They could include ‘Do you agree?’ appended to them to make them more comprehensible. I didn’t create the survey nor am I involved in the project. Just following it’s progress. You could email Bruce to pass on your feedback.
Is the author anonymous?
This is a ban of those apps on work issued devices, not personal devices. I suspect there’s a range of reasons for doing this but I don’t think the apps being compromised is one of those reasons. Most likely the opposite, the apps work too well.
That’s not the case with my parents.
I think this is a limitation of Android that cannot be overcome.
They fired many MDN writers a few years back.
