I have: claws-mail-pgp-3.17.5
geany-plugin-pg-1.36
gnupg-2.2.20
gpgme-1.13.1
and start gpg-agend with gpg-connect-agent /bye. The claws-mail and geany
will not prompt for the passphrase since I added some keys to the key-ring.
claws-mail worked with one key that matched the email profile. I've had no
luck with any options in gpg.conf, The gpg command flags anything as an
error. The following:
default-cache-ttl 46000
allow-preset-passphrase
gets: gpg -d dtd.txt
gpg: /home/doug/.gnupg/gpg.conf:1: invalid option
gpg: /home/doug/.gnupg/gpg.conf:2: invalid option
What does work is starting the agent with `gpg-connect-agent /bye` and then
`gpg -d dtd.txt` which prompts for the passphrase after which claws-mail
and geany work fine.
The last thing I tried:
/usr/local/libexec/gpg-preset-passphrase --preset -c <Keygrip>
gpg-preset-passphrase: caching passphrase failed: Not supported
