Mainly because the main "thunderbird" maintainer doesn't want it...

The simplest way to build enigmail is to build it during the thunderbird
build, but this requires at least one patch (for non i386 arch).

Some info on the old package review :
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=239336

But a lot of this have been discussed on the fedora mailing list.

So, il will continue to build it myself for my little repo where I also
put a lot of backports (Mofo, Lamp, ...)

Hope it's used by some people... ;)

In the future, i will have some works to have it build against
thunderbird 3 as a xulrunner app. Hope it will be possible.

Remi.

P.S. : Yes, this is a pity, Fedora is the only distro without enigmail...
