Though I think I would feel better (security-wise) about installing the debian version of enigmail. Of course running with the currently unupgraded version of thunderbird as I am is also suboptimal. ~e

I'm not sure if it will be related but in later attempts to update I got this internal error: -- root@orion:~# aptitude upgrade -V Resolving dependencies...

stretch update of thunderbird wants to remove enigmail
Greetings, I run debian stretch: ni@quark:/etc$ cat debian_version 9.5 and I use a number of email clients. I see there is currently an update (presumably security related?) for thunderbird. But as this upgrade would remove enigmail I chose (at least for the moment) to not implement it. Does anyone know if there are plans in the works for an associated upgrade of enigmail so that it might be possible in the near future to upgrade thunderbird without losing embedded support for gnupg? I'm not subscribed to this list (but will check the archives on-line for a while to make sure I don't miss a reply), so CCs to me are fine (and even appreciated if you are willing). thanks so very much in advance, ~e
