sorry are you telling me that option in thunderbird snap
"mail.openpgp.allow_external_gnupg" to true is useless? and therefore yubikey 5
and yubikey 5c and similar tokens that have openpgp functions can no longer be
used on thunderbird since ubuntu 24.04 does not allow installation of deb
** Summary changed:
- snap thunderbird cannot sign messages with external gnupg

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS now manages Thunderbird with only the snap package,
this makes it impossible to use openpgp private keys stored on tokens
like yubikey because even activating the
"mail.openpgp.allow_external_gnupg" option in the snap package it has no
effect, which instead works with thunderbird
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Title:
If this is of any help, I've documented the issues that preclude this
from working in the snapcraft forum, at
https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/thunderbird-snap-and-external-gnupg-for-
smart-cards/39553. Unfortunately, the enigmail logging is not terribly
useful and nor is the debug log from GPGme.
