Hi
I switched from 3.1.11 to 6 and now thunderbird tells me it has problem with enigmail.
Quite funny, I unemerged enigmail a month ago because it was a blocker for version 4 or 5 of thunderbird, but till now thunderbird was happy (since I rarely use signing or encryption, that's fair). I can see no recent enigmail version in portage tree nor i can download this plugin on mozilla sites because linux/ppc is not supported there.
How do you handle this ?
Thanks in advance.
Laurent G.

Hi, I had no idea we were up to version 6 :oops: I'll emerge now and let you know.. here's my info...


Code:
Calculating dependencies ... done!               
[ebuild     U  ] mail-client/thunderbird-6.0 [3.1.10] USE="alsa crashreporter%* crypt dbus ipc%* libnotify lightning startup-notification wifi -bindist -custom-cflags -custom-optimization -debug -gconf% -mozdom -system-sqlite (-gnome%) (-ldap%)" LINGUAS="en en_GB -ar -be -bn -bn_BD -br% -ca -cs -da -de -el -en_US -es -es_AR -es_ES -et -eu -fi -fr -fy -fy_NL -ga -ga_IE -gd% -gl% -he -hu -id -is -it -ja -ko -lt -nb -nb_NO -nl -nn -nn_NO -pl -pt -pt_BR -pt_PT -rm% -ru -si -sk -sl -sq -sv -sv_SE -ta% -ta_LK% -tr -uk (-af%) (-bg%) (-pa%) (-pa_IN%) (-ro%) (-zh%) (-zh_CN%) (-zh_TW%)" 85,988 kB
[uninstall     ] x11-plugins/enigmail-1.1.2-r2  USE="alsa dbus libnotify startup-notification wifi -custom-cflags -custom-optimization -debug -gnome -system-sqlite"
[blocks b      ] x11-plugins/enigmail ("x11-plugins/enigmail" is blocking mail-client/thunderbird-6.0)




*** edit ***
Nope, enigmail was removed and everything installed ok.

I don't know if a
Code:
# equery b enigmail
would be of any use. There must be something else needing it.

Use the crypt use flag of thunderbird. This will install enigmail automatically. The separate enigmail ebuild will be removed.

How do you know?
Hey, the two of us could do a fine job on these forums when issues arise.
I talk too much, you talk so sparingly.
In avarage, we talk ideal! :lol:
Nah, no jokes, where did you get your info from?
Tell us pls.!
I mean I have problems with Thunderbird 7.0, then 8.0 and even onwards, because of, if you are right, the separate enigmail portage package...

I just looked up:
http://www.gentoo.org/dyn/use-index.xml
and what you said above doesn't look at all obvious there.

True!
I just installed mail-client/thunderbird-8.0-r1 with crypt use flag. I saw it compiled something like enigmail.jar and other things enigSOMETHING-ELSE etc...
Maybe the entries here:
http://www.gentoo.org/dyn/use-index.xml
for enigmail and thunderbird are a little outdated, but maybe it's I am on testing ~amd64 flags, so the thing is still new...
