If that's the response and you're holding to it, you have to change
enigmail to depend on gnupg2 instead of gnupg, as the gnupg package is
(at least currenty) tied to the 1.x branch of gpg.


The alternative would be something messy,
like changing the dependencies to:

Depends: thunderbird | icedove | iceape-mailnews | seamonkey-mailnews,
libc6 (>= 2.5-5), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.2-20070516), libnspr4-0d (>=
1.8.0.10), libstdc++6 (>= 4.2-20070516), gnupg2 | gnupg, gnupg2 |
pinentry-gtk | pinentry-gtk2 | pinentry-qt

Please double-check my syntax,
I'm not sure how to otherwise do "A | (B, C)"

Also note the issue with the default /usr/bin/pinentry pointing to
pinentry-curses, which I suppose you could solve by installing a
/usr/bin/pinentry-gui that points at a non-curses version (or
requesting that the pinentry maintainer do that and depend on versions
after it is added).  (I /did/ say it was messy...)


For more workaround notes, see the Enigmail FAQ entry for this,

I hope this helps!
