I have compiled and run Thunderbird on linux, but the Chinese characters are garbled.At the same time, I want to develop a Chinese page for subsequent development. May I ask how to install the Simplified Chinese language pack? The language pack I see currently does not support daily118 version.Do I need to install the corresponding version of the language pack for Chinese translation after the official release of the 118 version? If so, when is the 118 version expected to come online?Thanks!

 Thanks！I saw the Chinese version of the daily version, but it was an integrated Chinese version. I compiled Thunderbird from source code in linux. What can I do to make my compiled version work with the Chinese interface?I hope to get a Chinese page of Thunderbird, and further modify the source code development.
 I'm Sorry that my English is not very good. Thank you for your help!

Any reason you need the language pack for the daily version? Language packs for the release and beta versions are available, e.g. for the release:

https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/115.1.1/linux-x86_64/xpi/

for the beta:
