Package: claws-mail Version: 3.5.0-2 For about a month or so I've noticed Claws temporarily pause sometimes when pening mails. This isn't specific to a particular mail or sender; re-opening the target it is always successful. The pause usually lasts for about 30-60 seconds and does not seem to be network related, rather that Claws is simply not repainting to the screen.
If I strace Claws when this occurs, I see it select()ing on two adjacently
numbered file descriptors, which according to /proc/${PID}/fd equate to some
pipes.
Acting on a hunch, one time whilst I was waiting for it I noticed a gpg
process in "--batch" mode, which was blocked reading on another pipe FD. The
process ended suspiciously close to when Claws "unpaused", but this is might
be coincidence.
Any ideas? Assuming some GPG problem, I am not running low on entropy (is
this even needed for decrypting/validating?) As I alluded to above, this bug
is rather non-deterministic and have been unable to develop a testcase - any
pointers on how to collect more information would be useful.
