Hmm....
I meantime found the below at
https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-us/thunderbird/addon/lightning/reviews/
The one in German says: 'Ubuntu users... should remove the
add-on (Lightning); close TB, install the xul-ext-lightning'.
Maybe that's what's required instead of straight re-install
(which presumably might have left Lightning as it was)? I wish
now I'd written down at the time what I did.

This add-on should be integrated in
Thunderbird because totaly compulsory.
Since recent upgrade to Thunderbird 60 lightning for Linux
doesn't work anymore... but thanks to a previous review I didn't
lose my appointments !
The solution is to remove Lightning, then run "sudo apt install
xul-ext-lightning"

Gutes Kalender-Addon.
Für Ubuntu-Benutzer, bei denen es seit Thunderbird 60.2.1 wie
bei mir nicht mehr geht:
Addon aus Thunderbird entfernen, Thunderbird beenden, per apt
das Paket "xul-ext-lightning" installieren.

I tried that, but when it didn't work I
checked that the packages xul-ext-lightning,
xul-ext-calendar-timezones and xul-ext-gdata-provider were
installed. Then I reinstalled Thunderbird. That seemed to fix
it (but I still don't understand why.)
In case it helps...

Ah the removal of the Lightning extension (as provided by
mozilla) from TB then allows TB to find the zul extension on
startup! This had not been clear to me until now!
