Package: mozilla-enigmail
Version: 2:0.90.0-1
Severity: minor
I have a large keyring. Specifically, I've got my personal stuff plus
the debian-keyring. Whenever enigmail encounters a message that is
signed with a key that I don't have, I click the pen icon and it
offers to download the key. I download from wwwkeys.pgp.net. I see the
throbber as it takes however long to download. Everything is fine up
until this point.
Once the download finishes, all mozilla windows are entirely
frozen. They won't repaint. Top shows gpg running at ~100% CPU. ps
shows the command:
/usr/bin/gpg --charset utf8 --batch --no-tty --status-fd 2 --verify
As soon as this finishes running, Mozilla unfreezes. Mozilla shouldn't
be blocked by a slow process such as this gpg command. It should use
the same throbber window that the download does and allow background
activity.
This may or may not be related to bug 284776. That bug seems to
describe that some emails cause a delay in Thunderbird randomly
without additional user interaction. If Thunderbird Enigmail is
downloading the new keys automatically, then it could be triggering
this same problem.
