To fix it, (until updated ebuild is in portage) put mozilla-thunderbird ebuild

and reemerge.

does this fixes the ugly "decrypt" & "openpgp" enigmail icons in thunderbird, btw?
else i'll open a new bug.

Nope, but I don't care about look, it's functionality that counts.

[Comment 3 Axel Dyks 2004-09-24 19:04:59 UTC]

Can CONFIRM.

With enigmime-0.86.0/enigmail-0.86.1 Umlauts are displayed correctly.
Not with enigmime/enigmail-0.86.0 that is compiled into the 0.8 ebuild
of mozilla-thunderbid

I have successfully tested the following 2 (A,B) temporary workarounds :
(A) Build thunderbird without enigmime/enigmail
   1. As root user:
      - USE="-crypt" emerge mozilla-thunderbird
      - download enigmime-0.86.0 extension
      - install the extension and restart thunderbird 
   2. As non-root-user:
      - download enigmail-0.86.1 extension
      - install the extension and restart thunderbird
      
(B) Build with enigmime/enigmail support
   1. As root user: USE="crypt" emerge mozilla-thunderbird
   2. As non-root-user:
      - download enigmail-0.86.1 extension
      - install the extension and restart thunderbird
      - un-install the extension and restart thunderbird
      - re-install the extension and restart thunderbird
        
BTW: Umlauts are not displayed correctly with enigmail-0.86.0 regardless
  of using ISO-8859-X or UTF-8 encoding. (That is how I bounced into
  this problem. While "unicoding" (UTF-8) my gentoo installation...)

Is anyone working on this bug? It is really ugly and the fix is so easy. Please merge it.

[Comment 5 Alexander M. Turek 2004-11-06 05:27:52 UTC]

Great Job! The bug is now in mozilla-thunderbird-0.9.ebuild, too...
There's a new Enigmail version (v0.68.2) which is recommended for Thunderbird 0.86.2. But Gentoo still installs the buggy v0.86.0 here.

HELLO GENTOO? Is there anybody out there?

[Comment 6 Alexander M. Turek 2004-11-06 05:28:37 UTC]

bad typo, Of course I meant 0.86.2

[Comment 7 Matteo Settenvini 2004-11-15 12:11:21 UTC]

We're at 0.89 by now. Luckily we just got mozilla-thunderbird-0.9-r2, that forced 
us to recompile it when ``emerge world'', and for what? Some ebuild cleanup 
that won't affect the final build much (for the end user, I mean)... :p
Or maybe I'm wrong, but then why this trivial bug hasn't been fixed, since 
Sep, 18th??
Anyway, I ain't blaming anybody. I'm just puzzled.

I just didn't notice it because I've been working on firefox bugs.. :-(

I'm working on the update now, both in firefox and mozilla
