Is it possible that these three flags aren't relevant any longer
*because* we're using the system rnp?

in comm/third_party/openpgp.configure i see the tests for those options
bracketed within a block that begins:
 
-----
with only_when(in_tree_librnp):
-----

And i don't see those options anywhere else in the codebase.

It would make sense if those options shouldn't be supplied at all any
longer when we're using the system rnp, and i'd expect that the updated
thunderbird wouldn't acquire any new dependencies from omitting those
changes.

I'd guess that you can probably also remove the build-deps on:

libbotan-2-dev
libbz2-dev
libjson-c-dev

And the build should complete without an error, but i haven't tested it
myself.

Thank you very much for working on this, Carsten!
