enigmail with pgp 2.2.4

[Dmitry Gudkov]

Hi Werner,

yes, i am.

*I just manually compiled it on the fresh install of ubuntu 16.04 per
the below script:*

cd ~/Downloads
version=gnupg-2.2.4
wget https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/gnupg/$version.tar.bz2
wget https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/gnupg/$version.tar.bz2.sig
tar xf $version.tar.bz2
cd $version
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y libldap2-dev
sudo apt-get install -y gtk+-2
sudo apt-get install -y rng-tools
sudo apt-get install -y libbz2-dev
sudo apt-get install -y zlib1g-dev
sudo apt-get install -y libgmp-dev
sudo apt-get install -y nettle-dev
sudo apt-get install -y libgnutls28-dev
sudo apt-get install -y libsqlite3-dev
sudo apt-get install -y adns-tools
sudo apt-get install -y libreadline-dev
sudo apt-get install -y qtbase5-dev
sudo apt-get install -y pinentry-gtk2
sudo apt-get install -y pcscd scdaemon
sudo make -f build-aux/speedo.mk INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local
speedo_pkg_gnupg_configure='--enable-g13 --enable-wks-tools' native
sudo ldconfig

# use nano to create a configuration file: nano ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf
# add the line: pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-gtk-2
# chmod 600 ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf

*the result is the following:*

*then I imported my existing keys for the other machine*

*and all works fine in terminal*

however after installing Enigmail I get this error when I try to attach
my public key to the message

thank you for your time to this matter

Dmitry
