Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnupg
1) System > Preferences > Encryption and Keyrings
2) Select PGP Passphrases tab.
3) Select 'Never remember passphrases' radio-button.
4) Check 'Show icon in status area when passphrases are in memory' check-box.
5) Use Engimail with thunderbird.
6) Send an e-mail that is signed/encrypted.
a) Thunderbird/enigmail asks for passphrase to unlock key.
b) gnupg asks for passphrase to unlock key (yes a second time, filing bug
with enigmail...unless it's gnupg's fault?)
Expect: Passphrase to not be stored, and the notification icon to not
show up.
What happens instead: Passphrase is stored and icon shows up in
notification area. [It's still there at least 20 minutes after sending
the e-mail.]
