Trisquel pulls its Icedove from Debian wheezy. Icedove in Trisquel repo is 38.8.0-1~deb7u1.1+7.0trisquel2 while the upstream version is 45.4.0esr-1~deb7u2.
I suppose the problem is because of the deb-src URL in the package helper.

Trisquel 8.0 support ended in April 2021.
Please open a new issue in case it remains on the current supported release.
Cheers!
This issue is still actual for Trisquel 8.0 according to a recent forum post https://trisquel.info/en/forum/thunderbird-install-instead-icedove-trisquel8. Not sure if there are any exploitable security bugs in non-browser contexts.
