  Description     : high-performance C++ OpenPGP library

A set of portable OpenPGP (RFC4880) tools, derived originally from
NetPGP and dependent on Botan for cryptographic primitives.

"rnp" offers a command-line interface of comparable functionality to
GnuPG's gpg tool.

"librnp" offers a C library that exposes OpenPGP functionality.

Newer versions of Mozilla Thunderbird appear to be likely to
incorporate tooling from RNP for handling OpenPGP natively [0], so we
should have this available in debian directly.
