[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#871663: enigmail: 2.1.9.8.1.1 on jessie requires gnupg later than latest available

[D. R. Evans]

Package: enigmail
Version: 2:1.8.2-4~deb8u1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,


On 64-bit jessie, updating to the current officially supported versions of
thunderbird/iceweasel (version 1.52.2.1) and enigmail, the enigmail portion
(version 2.1.9.8.1.1) is unusable because it requires gnupg 2.0.7, whereas the
version in the jessie repository is 1.4.18. See screenshot at
https://www.dropbox.com/s/6s3z6jy5ns3z9qd/gnupg1.png?dl=0.

The only solution appears to be to downgrade thunderbird/iceweasel and enigmail
to the prior working versions.
