kleopatra complains that gpgme should be compiled with gpgconf support

[PascalC]

Binary package hint: libgpgme11

Kubuntu Intrepid

kleopatra autotest at start complains that gpgme should be compiled with gpgconf support
see attached screenshot

ii libgpgme11 1.1.6-2ubuntu1 GPGME - GnuPG Made Easy
ii kleopatra 4:4.1.3-0ubuntu1~intrepid2 KDE Certificate Manager

Same result for kleopatra from KDE 4.2 beta:
ii kleopatra 4:4.1.80-0ubuntu1~intrepid1~p KDE Certificate Manager

[Peter Antoniac (pan1nx)]

I confirm. And it causes some strange behaviour when you try to configure the keyservers or other configurations related to gpgconf.

[giacof (giacof)]

I confirm. Same packages version.
I also get errors that in English would sound like 'unable to detect certificate type', when trying to import certificates from a file. That ends up with a failure in verifying the email signature.

[Bryan (brywilharris)]

Fix. I recompiled libgpgme11 from source and that fixed the error message. I can confirm that gpg encryption/decryption now work in kmail, but not signing for some reason. I have attached the rebuilt deb and all the source stuff I used to compile this package.

This bug was fixed in the package gpgme1.0 - 1.1.8-2ubuntu2

So does this means you aren't going to fix this in Intrepid because the Jaunty
package works?

No. All it means is that the bug isn't in kdepim.

[Bryan (brywilharris)]

OK, gotcha. I misunderstood. Thanks.

Unfortunately this has rendered seahorse unbuildable since it Build-Conflicts: gnupg2. Somebody should investigate this.

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

I've filed bug 346591 for the seahorse problem.

[Mikael Gerdin (mgerdin)]

It seems that it is sufficient for gpgme to know the path of where it should find gpgconf, just as with the gpg and gpgsm binaries. Simply adding "--with-gpgconf=/usr/bin/gpgconf" to its configure options makes it work for me.
Attaching debdiff

This update also caused bug 352180. I will change the binary dependency to be "gnupg | gnupg2". In fact, I see no reason why a library should depend on any application in the first place.
