Dear community,

I need help with installing the latest Thunderbird version. I am using Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon and have Thunderbird 115.18.0 installed via package manager. I'd like to upgrade to the latest version (which is not yet available in the package manager) and also would like to keep my current user profile (settings, email accounts and folders). I have read the install instructions [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/installing-thunderbird-linux#w_insta...] but before I do it I'd like to know if this will keep my profile unchanged and which would be the best option to install: systemwise or localwise?

Thank you, Matei
