Last night Thunderbird decided to auto-update, and during the auto-update the process was killed*. Now I can't start Thunderbird anymore. Every time it gives "Segmentation fault (code dumped)". I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling Thunderbird. I'm on Fedora 36 and the repo installs `thunderbird-102.10.0-1.fc36.x86_64`. I have no idea what version I was running before as it auto-updates nearly every time I need it (which isn't that often). Is there any way to get it working again?

* The out-of-memory daemon (oomd) incorrectly decided that memory pressure was too high and slaughtered off my session. Bug report https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/25853

Thunderbird 102.10.0 is almost two years old. I'm not sure why you want such an outdated version. Ask in a Fedora forum how to get a more recent version of Thunderbird. Alternative use the vanilla version from https://www.thunderbird.net/
