[Bug 1682455] [NEW] thunderbird not available in GNOME Software

[Staš Kotarac Guček]

Public bug reported:

I am filing this against Thunderbird, even though it also concerns
another package (GNOME Software).

Essentially, using a freshly installed Ubuntu GNOME 17.04, Thunderbird
is not available in GNOME Software (the default software app for this
flavour). You cannot find it via search or the packages browser.

The only way to install it is via apt-get and even then it doesn't show
in Software (see attached picture).

** Affects: thunderbird (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
