Hello,
anthraxx did update the PKGBUILD and we are testing the build but
currently for instance I’m unable to decrypt messages using the
external GnuPG feature (reported upstream), and there is also a build
issue with system bzip2 (I used the vendored one instead, but that’s
not what we want for the final build).
So for now this remain WIP.
I couldn't find the ticket in Bugzilla. Can you please post the ticket
number of the bug that was reported upstream?
Sure: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1675939
GnuPG was replaced by OpenPGP. What are you referring to when you say
"decrypt messages using the external GnuPG feature"?
Thunderbird allows you to use GnuPG for private key operations if you
can’t/don’t want to import your private key into Thunderbird. This is a
feature lot of us need, because if you use a smartcard-like hardware
solution (Yubikey, Nitrokey, any PGP smartcard…) that’s the only
solution (since you cannot import your private key into Thunderbird).
Thunderbird calls this the “external GnuPG feature”:
