Hi Daniel, Thank you for your reply.
I have checked my Thunderbird version and I have the latest available one on my platform: "apt-cache policy thunderbird thunderbird: Installed: 1:45.8.0-3~deb8u1 Candidate: 1:45.8.0-3~deb8u1" (also according to https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/icedove) I have checked bug https://bugs.debian.org/870073 but I do not think that we have the same issue: I didn't have to restart gpg-agent when installing the version I have compiled of enigmail... (and I don't use gnome, nor its keyring, at least not that I am, nor ps aux | grep's aware of) So I still think that this bug should be reopened for the specific architecture that I am using. (in clear, that Bug #869774 should be reopened for PPC) Regards, Stiepan On 08/10/17 15:12, Daniel Kahn Gillmor wrote: > Hi there Stiepan-- > > On Wed 2017-08-09 01:21:38 +0200, Stiepan Aurélien Kovac wrote: >> seems to have broken enigmail support, at least on the ppc (powerpc64) arch. > I don't think this is a ppc-specific issue -- nothing in the current > version of enigmail is debian-specific.
