I updated my Thunderbird Email client on the Release Update channel, and now clicking it on my Mac Mini Catalina dock just gets 2 stuck processes. I kill the later process, and then Thunderbird launches.

I am guessing it is this bug that is fixed in V143. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1977514 No backport to ESR as yet as far as I can see.

This should be resolved now in esr 140.2.1
