TorBirdy 0.1.3 -- Our fourth beta release!

I am aware that Tor Birdy is for Thunderbird! I already use Tor Birdy with Thunderbird. Please read my prior posts. (Admittedly this is an anonymous posting thread but if you follow it up the thread to earlier comments, you can see what is going on!)

Please excuse me for being frustrated, but I am a fairly technical person, and if I am having trouble it is obvious that it will be nearly impossible for large numbers of people to have the benefit of the new version of Tor Birdy, which is a very useful tool(!!) Most people would have given up after the first frustrating step (see earlier posts above). That is a fact. Ease of use in terms of the install process is seriously lacking - this is a usability issue!

With that out of the way, here I go again, following the instructions that I used quite a long while ago (successfully I might add) to install the previous version of Tor Birdy:
https://securityinabox.org/thunderbird_torbirdy

(This is all being done today, again)

I can't get past the first step in the process, because as I have previously stated, it takes you to this link:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/torbirdy/
When you go there it is plain to anyone that it says 0.1.2 and not 0.1.3.

So then my next step is to go to the link provided at
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/torbirdy
As you can see from reading that guidance, there is a link to what is called "the most recent version" of Tor Birdy.
https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/downloads/file/199062/
But it's not the most recent version, because even though I already have 0.1.2, nobody has bothered to update the "most recent version" at the link above. It's still showing the 0.1.1 version(!)

OK, so my next step is this:
To go to
https://dist.torproject.org/torbirdy/
So I clicked on the link that appears as follows:
torbirdy-0.1.3.xpi 23-Oct-2014 14:53 147K
I allowed Thunderbird to download it and waited for the inevitable errof of
"Torbirdy could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 33.0" that always appears.
But this time the error did not appear, because one of the devs has evidently fixed something that was causing the error message to occur.

Finally, a small window appeared indicating that the plugin had been downloaded!
Joy to the world.

Next step: Get the updated plugin into Thunderbird.
So back to the original instructions found at:
https://securityinabox.org/thunderbird_torbirdy
and I followed the steps beginning from Step 1 (now that I've successfully downloaded the latest plugin).
But it cannot be found even when the "All Files" selection is made (which shows all file types) following the securityinabox steps.
And it cannot be found in any of the usual suspect folders.
Finally shows up in a file search, but there is no file location associated with it. Problems!

So that didn't work. My last best hope is to try and download it directly from terminal, which by the way is not a workable solution for the vast majority of users, who'd like to be able to download it directly.

So now I do this:
- I close thunderbird (which still has Tor Birdy 0.1.2 in it, no problems with that)
- And I go into terminal and do the following:
sudo apt-get install xul-ext-torbirdy
And it doesn't work - it throws the following error message:
E: Unable to locate package xul-ext-torbirdy

As I've said before, your 0.1.3 was not ready for release. I am guessing a very tiny percentage of overall Tor Birdy users actually have managed to install 0.1.3. I will continue to use 0.1.2 until such time as the developers get the kinks out of the new version of Tor Birdy.

Next step: I will try simply going to terminal to get it as follows:
