Hello all.
Just upgraded my SUSE 9.2 Pro system from kde-3.3 to 3.4. I use kmail for all my e-mail needs with integrated gpg for signing mail. I've never had any problems with gpg in the past. gpg-agent was set to start when I started my system and it would prompt me for my passphrase when I sent e-mail. However, now when I start my machine I get an error message about gpg-agent not running. Regardless of what I do, I cannot get gpg-agent to run correctly. And, when I send e-mail I get the following error message:
Is it possible that this is another manifestation of the missing dependencies in the newly supplied KDE packages that allow installation to proceed without all the required cyrus-sasl packages?
It couldn't hurt to run YaST Install and Remove Software, search for packages that include "cyrus-sasl" and install all except the -devel package.
Then see if your symptoms remain.
Thank you for your thoughts, Randall. I have all the cyrus packages installed and I'm still having kmail/gpg problems. For example, when restarting my machine I get the following error message: The use of GnuPG Agent is enabled in GnuPG's configuration file (/home/cms/.gnupg/gpg.conf). However, the agent does not seem to be running. This could result in problems with signing/decryption. Please disable GnuPG Agent from KGpg settings, or fix the agent. Truth is, I'm not really sure if the problem deals specifically with kmail or gpg --or both. Thanks though. Christopher Shanahan
