The problem is that -v causes GnuPG to output more stuff. If that output goes to stdout, then Enigmail cannot distinguish this from "other" output. I assume that this is a little bug in GnuPG as I think that verbose output should normally go to stderr. I cannot see how this could be fixed in Enigmail in any way. - -Patrick -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJVSwuMAAoJENsRh7ndX2k7okwP/iQxW+ZpEireLT9nvVe7Cb/D jjcPsjkJ9tQArig7NM/RbYpQVaUdT1PDXiAVjH+9QHC93ZFS9i2Uixev0oKi/ll/ +c8BVrys8plqr2galMHFj+xyIPrm/yGxM1hGAjuMAkT+ocs4DsBDHvFQjznzjzZz nOo0XDozPIUpjANwV6BespAc3I/6tQWIdQ2eDqqVtKocm0SxgpLCRbOXR92YPjZj 6zLqTNM93nvd1atGwgp52gEQHZT0Y1EpfqHPtOwbZ6k5cdktgdx5KB8HNqrAQSTI b5EvXmKwIZSQ63B27cObZvAam+pLjcy2KnfRccDcE67TOqQrQErgiJs+uNo5VUcd TIrbetYyRxLAxBFQ+XhFMT9gfL2SkiXyskF7hq++P3edW7yB9i1Et5TcYtHWF0wk wj1QxZHtX/n50wuCT3DwmMg3JnyeaUcUCEPG1tNnGRh6dIKG1VC0CvBbT2GQsb+0 HR3DE6sDU/6g0+GTIJ/EdVUgAUAVTiMAMrzLcxMrJ49biFw5xNHMQEuwj+l20l21 X6R6opPQA+xVik+ZGQE3lF7Mkr+DR5rA/JxLKj5emQNR4w35qy2HMgrxVO2yu1lc FOKrYLNg5gOX2Ug3AYwLfWimd6gfUe2PH+aeTJU3q0+xQ/O6KufsUVgVgBN4iYg3 qsamllDIX9IbEivMsCh+ =w2RF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ enigmail-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or make changes to your subscription click here: https://admin.hostpoint.ch/mailman/listinfo/enigmail-users_enigmail.net
