fwiw, i don't see how this is going to work, since jessie has only gpg
1.4.18 and 2.0.26 -- modern enigmail requires gnupg 2.0.14 at least, so
that rules out the 1.4 series.  And the 2.0 branch has been EOLed and
unsupported upstream for nearly a year, and represents a significantly
different codebase than the 2.1/2.2 series.

Or if you are talking about backporting 2.1.x or 2.2.x, that might be a
different situation; but just backporting the gnupg patches from stretch
to jessie sounds pretty tough. (i haven't tried though)
