Mozilla is versioning the libxul.so since the release of version 24 or
before. So basicly this is not a bug I think. Especially we build our
own "lightning".
The forwareded link is showing that it is nessesary to respect the
correct libxul version for the usage of a own extension.
As i can see you use icedove-dev (>= 17.0) in your control file, the
icedove version has to fit the version from experiemental (currently) if
you want build against the icedove 24.
We are planning to build icedove 24.2 right after the New Years Day and
upload it to unstable, the last ESR version 17 is now eol.

Carsten
