[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#930062: enigmail: Engimail decrypt-passphrase window takes control of desktop

[Emmanuel Revah]

Package: enigmail
Version: 2:2.0.10+ds1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

I opened Thunderbird and selected an encrypted message. Or, I opened Thunderbird and the first message on the list is encrypted.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

A dialog window pops up and asks me to enter my gpg passphrase, and takes over the desktop.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I expected to be able to leave that window on the side and use other programs (Pidgin, volume control, etc). I can see other windows and mouse actions seem to work, but anything keyboard related does not work. I can navigate in Firefox, but I can't enter a new url, I can't edit text in Vim or type something in Pidgin, but I can clock the volume controle in the task bar

I'm using KDE/Plasma, it seems this behaviour is also present on Gnome and possibly other desktops.


Thanks for any possible help and/or explanations to help me understand what's up.
:]
