Confirmed, when I try to encrypt a file using the right mouse click and choosing tot option to encrypt I get the dialogue choose receiptients and choose the right key. I gave an OK and the dialogues closes. Noting happens further. the file is not encryptedn and in the xsession errors file the error essage appears;
** (seahorse-tool:2846): CRITICAL **: prompt_recipients: assertion `GPG_IS_OK (gerr)' failed

Unfortunately, this bug is still present in today's 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 release of seahorse-plugins/seahorse tools. There seems to be no way of getting this to work: it doesn't work from the context menu in nautilus, and it doesn't work from the command line.

Could someone please have a look at this? If there's no patch, we'll get an Ubuntu 10.04 that can neither encrypt, nor decrypt or verify. And the thought of a a Linux system that can't do this is mind-boggling, frankly...

Still no updates? This was reported in January and is a major regression of a useful feature

[Daniel Jour (danieloertwig)]

I can confirm this bug.
When trying to decrypt any file, seahorse-tool segfaults.

Syslog:

Apr 6 11:04:59 localhost kernel: [ 1476.907230] seahorse-tool[4432]: segfault at 68 ip 00007f8849350b79 sp 00007fff2c59df60 error 4 in libgpgme.so.11.7.0[7f8849332000+31000]

Console-output:

seahorse-tool -dv Desktop/to.flv.pgp

This should be fixed as it is a very important feature.
Tell me if I can help you any further

Same here. After selecting the key, the dialog closes and nothing happens afterwards.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the issue is due to the new libgpgme in lucid, using the karmic version works correctly

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The issue is that the new version requires gpgme_check_version() to be called before gpgme_new(), I will fix the issue

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the change is ready to be uploaded now

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package seahorse-plugins - 2.30.0-0ubuntu2

---------------
seahorse-plugins (2.30.0-0ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/06_gpgme_check_version.patch:
    - use gpgme_engine_check_version() before gpgm_new() since the current
      gpgme version requires to do those calls, the change fixes the nautilus
      entries not working (lp: #514950)
