Package: sylpheed
Version: 2.4.2-1
Severity: wishlist
When trying to sign a message with a PGP key that is expired gives the
following message on stderr (and nothing happens in the window of the
message itself):
(sylpheed:26600): Sylpheed-WARNING **: pgp_sign(): signing failed: User
defined error code 1
It would be nice if the message could give more info about _why_ it
failed (in this case, the key was expired). Or, better yet, have an
error message appear in the interface. This would have taken me even
longer to figure out what was going on if I couldn't see the console
output easily.
