Hello,

I am trying to upgrade my old GnuPG (version 2.0.14) in order to
use Enigmail with my current Thunderbird.

I tried installing libgpg-error-1.28 but i am not sure it installed
correctly:
[root at llappari libgpg-error-1.28]# ./configure |tee mylog.txt

ended as:
---->
config.status: creating po/POTFILES
config.status: creating po/Makefile

        libgpg-error v1.28 has been configured as follows:

        Revision: e323423  (58147)
        Platform: i686-pc-linux-gnu

[root at llappari libgpg-error-1.28]#

[root at llappari libgpg-error-1.28]# make |tee -a mylog.txt

There are 4 "Nothing to be done"-messages in all. Is that normal?

[root at llappari libgpg-error-1.28]# make install|tee -a mylog.txt

[root at llappari libgpg-error-1.28]#
<----
That makes now 13 "Nothing to be done"-messages in all.

I get errors from the second phase when i try to install
libcrypt:

[root at llappari libgcrypt-1.8.2]# ./configure |tee -a mylog.txt

Ends with following message:
---->
checking whether a -O flag munging is requested... yes
checking whether to enable AMD64 as(1) feature detection... yes
checking for gpg-error-config... no
checking for GPG Error - version >= 1.25... no
configure: error: libgpg-error is needed.
                See ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgpg-error/ .
[root at llappari libgcrypt-1.8.2]#
<----

What should i do?

Any help is appreciated.
I am not an expert.

Kind Regards,
Jukka
