Title:
Passphrase dialog doesn't accept input
Status in seahorse package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: seahorse
Since upgrading to Hardy Heron, I ran into problems with the
Passphrase dialog when using Enigmail with Thunderbird. It'll plug
along fine, not grabbing focus, but accepting input. But then, at some
point, I'll hit "send" on a message, the passphrase dialog will come
up, and it won't accept input. Even if I click to give it focus, it
still won't accept input. Characters don't show in the text box, and
typing return won't confirm/close the dialog. Strangely, hitting
Escape _will_ close the dialog.
Once this starts happening, it seems to keep happening. Logging
out/in, even restarting (IIRC) don't fix the problem. It took me a
while to figure out that Enigmail was delegating the passphrase stuff
to a gpg-agent, and wrapping thunderbird with a script that unsets
GPG_AGENT_INFO did the trick (so that it doesn't call out to
seahorse).
Once I experienced the problem and tracked it to seahorse, I also
tried gpg directly from the commandline with --use-agent, and see the
same symptoms.
