Should have checked before sending, as it's now released:

The rc1 package is the same as a 78.2.1 final, so this one can be used

From talks on thunderbird matrix channel, it seems the migration path is
a bit broken per https://bugzil.la/1661967 if you get 2.2.1, so make
sure to use enigmail 2.2.2.

Creating a new openpgp setup from scratch is also a welcome test !
