Thunderbird freezing: System log shows error about Etc/GMT+7
I've been experiencing some issues with my computer freezing. (Pop_OS 22.04, Gnome 42.2, X11). I was composing a message at the time. In `/var/syslog` I'm getting errors related to Thunderbird.

I'm not sure if I understand why it is having trouble finding Etc/GMT+7 or whether the issue is in Thurnderbird proper or the Owl extension.

Russell,
Did you determine the cause of this?
Hi!
Removing calendar-data from profile directory solved this issue for me. Anyway i've newer used thunderbird calendar.
