Lightning is working for me on Natty 64-bit with the following
configuration:

jtait at sixtymilesmile:~$ apt-cache policy xul-ext-lightning
xul-ext-lightning:
  Installed: 1.0~b2+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu2
  Candidate: 1.0~b2+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu2
  Version table:

jtait at sixtymilesmile:~$ apt-cache policy thunderbird

jtait at sixtymilesmile:~$


I do recall (as Alan Lord pointed out) that there was a problem with
Lightning in Maverick, and I'm pretty sure I had to download it directly
from the website to work around that.
