I did that. But now I have half resolved the issue. The error only appears on a 64 bit gpg2 system - I removed all refs in Enigmail to gpg2 - now the only error message I get is "bad passphrase." I recall having a 64 bit Fedora O/S and experiencing the same kind of problems about 4 years ago. Now my only problem is I can not change the passphrase GPA Kleopatra KGpg or from the terminal. So am going to un-install gpg2 - I hope that fixes the problems. David -- “See the sanity of the man! No gods, no angels, no demons, no body.
