I'm using a git repository that is currently not published anywhere.
It would not be a problem to publish it. However, the current
situation for creating the "orig" tarball is a mess because I rely on
a bazaar repo from the Ubuntu mozilla maintainers that contains the
stripped down sources of Thunderbird to build enigmail and a
self-written script to merge in the enigmail sources. There is also a
d/rules target left from the Ubuntu people. Unfortunately this target
does not verify the authenticity of the enigmail tarball but deletes
it immediately, so I created my own script and check the authenticity
manually (I did not remove that target because it would add further
differences as compared to the Ubuntu version)

Additionally, there is no guarantee that what the Ubuntu repo contains
really builds. For icedove 17, what the repo contained did not build
and needed a patch.

I hope that this situation changes when we move to an icedove version
that allows enigmail to work without any further binary components -
that's one of the reasons why I have not invested time to make this
situation more collaboration-friendly, another one is that nobody
showed interest in collaborating.
