Mutt 1.20. --GPG--
Hello, Testing Mutt 1.20. GPG asks my passphrase but doesn't accept it. I don't really know where to start looking for figuring this out. from config.log: --- $ ./configure -C --prefix=/opt/mutt --enable-pop --enable-imap\ --enable-smtp --enable-debug --with-gss --with-gnutls --with-sasl --with-idn --enable-hcache --- output of version: - $ /opt/mutt/bin/mutt -version Mutt 1.5.20hg (2009-06-26) [...] System: Linux 2.6.27-14-generic (i686) ncurses: ncurses 5.6.20071124 (compiled with 5.6) libidn: 1.8 (compiled with 1.8) hcache backend: GDBM version 1.8.3. 10/15/2002 (built Jun 15 2006 21:19:27) Einstellungen bei der Compilierung: -DOMAIN +DEBUG -HOMESPOOL +USE_SETGID +USE_DOTLOCK +DL_STANDALONE +USE_FCNTL -USE_FLOCK +USE_POP +USE_IMAP +USE_SMTP -USE_SSL_OPENSSL +USE_SSL_GNUTLS +USE_SASL +USE_GSS +HAVE_GETADDRINFO +HAVE_REGCOMP -USE_GNU_REGEX +HAVE_COLOR +HAVE_START_COLOR +HAVE_TYPEAHEAD +HAVE_BKGDSET +HAVE_CURS_SET +HAVE_META +HAVE_RESIZETERM +CRYPT_BACKEND_CLASSIC_PGP +CRYPT_BACKEND_CLASSIC_SMIME -CRYPT_BACKEND_GPGME -EXACT_ADDRESS -SUN_ATTACHMENT +ENABLE_NLS -LOCALES_HACK +HAVE_WC_FUNCS +HAVE_LANGINFO_CODESET +HAVE_LANGINFO_YESEXPR +HAVE_ICONV -ICONV_NONTRANS +HAVE_LIBIDN +HAVE_GETSID +USE_HCACHE -ISPELL SENDMAIL="/usr/sbin/sendmail" MAILPATH="/var/mail" PKGDATADIR="/opt/mutt/share/mutt" SYSCONFDIR="/opt/mutt/etc" EXECSHELL="/bin/sh" -MIXMASTER --snip--- PS: after "make install" i manually changed permissions and group of /opt/mutt/bin/mutt_dotlock, because install failed at it: -- $ ls -l mutt_dotlock -rwxr-sr-x 1 jan mail 24118 2009-06-27 16:13 mutt_dotlock -- hints greatly appreciated jan

I guess I'm running into the same trap as just a few days ago: the ubuntu set up with the /etc/Muttrc.d/* files being sourced from /etc/Muttrc. Whereas my /opt/mutt/etc/Muttrc does something else. - $ locate gpg.rc /etc/Muttrc.d/gpg.rc /home/jan/SRC/mutt-1.5.20hg/contrib/gpg.rc /opt/mutt/share/doc/mutt/samples/gpg.rc /usr/share/doc/mutt/examples/gpg.rc - Let me fumble with this for a while. I am sure the answer resides in there somewhere. jan, and thanks!

So maybe mutt doesn't call gpg at all or in a wrong way... Ok, it works fine now. The problem was in the direction pointed to by Rocco: I aktually wasn't telling mutt at all how to call gpg. I copied the run commands from the samples/gpg.rc into my ".muttrc" with only slightly detailing the path to "pgpewrap". I find that building my own mutt improved my understanding a lot because i was forced to figure out the workings in detail. With the custom mutt install of ubuntu on the other hand it seems that these workings are being hidden from the user, which can lead to "selling him for dumb" (as the literal translation of a german figure of speech would phrase it). greetings jan > > I guess I'm running into the same trap as just a few days ago: the ubuntu > set up with the /etc/Muttrc.d/* files being sourced from /etc/Muttrc.
