I did add some notes to the Build requirements page from a Debian user perspective. If you feel it adds value to the page let it be, if not , feel free to revert to an older revision of the page.

@shirishag75 fyi i made some further improvements. on stretch, npm is missing

Eventually requestpolicy is considered to be a thunderbird add-on because of its signature (see #904). Just guessing.

Btw npm and nodejs have been in stretch backports for months now and without doing any special gymnastics. Just need to enable debian backports in Debian, update the index and install nodejs and npm and you have them.
