Description Sebastian Seifert 2003-09-06 12:40:47 UTC

Version:           1.5.3 (using KDE 3.1.3)
Installed from:     (testing/unstable)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.1 20030722 (Debian prerelease)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-ck6

if i open kmail, and the first message in my inbox is encrypted, i am presented with a "tip of the day" window that is completely unresponsible (cannot be closed), because it is waiting for the passphrase to be entered into another, hidden window. the first time this happened, it took me some time to locate the passphrase window. this is a very annoying user interface bug.

Is this the pinentry window, i.e. are you using gpg-agent?

No, it's the OpenPGP dialog for entering the secret key passphrase. I'm using
plain Debian/unstable gpg, no gpg-agent and no crypto modules.
