Thunderbird does not work properly with Enigmail gnuPGP pinentry Dec 15th 2012, 14:39 I have installed OpenSUSE 12.2 GnuPGP 2.0.19 Thunderbird 17.0 Enigmail 1.4.6 pinentry 0.8.1 Everythin was installed using yast. Yes the Enigmail addon too. Now I have the problem that I am not able to creat in Thunderbird/Enigmail an new key pair that is protected with an passphrase. Everything works fine when I use an key pair without passphrase, I can encrypt and decrypt E-Mails and so on. But when I try to create an key pair with pw the first problem is that the creation of an revocation zertificat fails. The wizzard is hanging and after a minute there is an error that the creation has failed. So far so good. If I then try to decrypt an E-Mail same thing first nothing happens an then the error no secret key. I think it is relatet to pinentry. Because the problem are always when there should be an pw input window. I try to install the qt and qt4 packages but nothing changed. I found a lot of forum entries about a missing pinentry installation but not much about such kind of problems. Anyone have an idear waht that could be about?
