unnecessary "Display expert settings" in enigmail configuration window

[Zeno Gantner]

Binary package hint: enigmail

How to reproduce the bug:
 - install thunderbird and enigmail
 - set up enigmail
 - choose "OpenPGP -> Preferences" from the menu.

As you can see on the attached screenshot, there is a checkbox
"Display expert settings". However, checking the box does not make a difference at all.
There are no expert settings, so the checkbox is not necessary, and a bit confusing for the user.

Best regards,

This has been fixed in 0.96, 0.96 more than likely not hit repos except in Karmic or Karmic+1 depending on upstream progress. I will see about getting it in my PPA but enigmail package in Ubuntu is a mess. That i had addressed with Alexander to see what can be done but i dont think he has had a minute to look into it.

If you check it you dont see tabs at the top? more than just that one?

This will not be fixed in stable release of enigmail. Upstream has replease the check box witha radial button in 0.96

0.96 has been 0.96a for a long time now >1month so this will not get fixed at any known date to come.

Hi John,

thanks for the quick response.

On my Launchpad account, I see that the bug has vanished, which is fine
for me, because I know that it will be OK as soon the new enigmail
version is in Ubuntu.

Isn't the bug report archived somewhere?
When searching for "enigmail", I do not see it any more.
So if another user has this problem (which seems likely), he will report
it again.

Best regards,
 Zeno
