Subject: enigmail: Enigmail can't decrypt after upgrade from etch to lenny
Package: enigmail
Version: 2:0.95.0+1-3.2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

*** Please type your report below this line ***
I have used enigmail extensively under etch.  Today I upgaded to Lenny.

When I put the cursor on an encrypted email a line appears at the top of
the email:

OpenPGP: Error - decryption failed; click Key icon for details

If I click on the key icon, the following message appears:

OpenPGP Security Info

Error - decryption failed

gpg command line and output:
/usr/bin/gpg --charset utf8  --batch --no-tty --status-fd 2 -d --use-agent
can't connect to `/home/jack/.gnome2/seahorse-5HDGLT/S.gpg-agent':

gpg: can't query passphrase in batch mode
gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit ELG-E key, ID 864B7F86, created 2006-04-22
      "Donald Jackson Dodds (b.1949-05-06 Montreal) (Main key)
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
gpg: public key decryption failed: bad passphrase
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available

I tried "ps -A |grep gpg" and found a process "gpg-agent" that is running.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Enigmail with synaptic.  No help.

I tried deleting the /etc/icedove/enigmail.js which was more than a year
old. No help.

This is not the same as bug 425274 or 468954 because the correct version is
being reported.
Tools-Add ons- Extensions is reporting "Enigmail 0.95.0" which is the
correct version.

I am also unable to sign emails.
