Got the same problem too, which I found very annoying.
I was very surprised to have such a blocking bug with regular Ubuntu updates.

Here is my fix :
- go to https://www.thunderbird.net/fr/ (yes, I use french version)
- download latest Thunderbird tarball (v 60.2.1)
- extract it to a dir
- then use it : $ ./thunderbird

Now Thunderbird and Lightning just work !

This means not using the Ubuntu package anymore as it is broken.
Now I can wait and see if the next Ubuntu updates fix the problem.
Else I'll use Mozilla packages directly, as they update smoother.
