On my up-to-date stretch setup, enigmail was suddendly broken today. Suddenly
enigmail shows me a pop-up:

Enigmail: Error in accessing Enigmail service In order to use Enigmail, GnuPG is required. If you did not install GnuPG yet, the easiest way to do this is using the "Setup Wizard" button below.

When I follow the wizard, taking the default answers, it ends with:

Enigmail requires GnuPG for doing the cryptographic work. The wizard tried to locate the GnuPG executable, but it could not be found.
Please locate GnuPG using the Browse button.

When I point it at either gpg or gpg2 it complains:
The file you specified is not a GnuPG executable. Please specify a different file.

Please let me know if you need more info.

Paul
