Hi Patrick. After reloading the key cache the error console shows nothing apart from regular js messages. In Enigmail's debug console it shows that the version of gpg2 (2.1.11) is the same as the cli version & that the home is ~/.gnupg where there is a pubring.gpg/kbx Cheers Phil. -- The sun shone, having no alternative, on the nothing new Murphy by Samuel Beckett https://www.linuxcounter.net/cert/550036.png
