    Kleopatra & KMail do not find certificates anymore

    Hi,

    my first message here. 8)

    At office we're obliged to use S/Mime encryption and signing in an MS-Environment.
    I managed to get most of it working for Linux using gpgsm & kleopatra. This worked for several years and suddenly stopped recently.

    Kleopatra does not show my certificates anymore, though gpgsm -k shows a list that seems to be the previously imported certificates. When I try to import a certificate that exists in the gpgsm key db I get a message that 1 certificate has been processed, 0 imported and 1, unchanged.
    New certificates are imported to gpgsm but not shown in Kleopatra.

    Kleopatra's self test tells me that the installation test of GPG, GPGSM, GPGConf passed but configuration test of gpgconf, gpg, gpg-agent, scdaemon, gpgsm and dirmgr have been skipped & I should install gpgconf 2.0.10 or higher.

    Indeed gpgconf's version number is 2.0.9 but ubuntu does not offer a newer package.

    Are you aware of a fix or workaround?

    Cheers Flint

    Ok, I downloaded gnupg2, libgcrypt11, libgpg-error0 from the karmic-archive. Fortunately there weren't any other dependencies.
    After installation and reboot (not sure whether reboot was necessary) Kleopatra shows my certificates again.

    Sometimes it helps to write down or describe the problem to find a solution by yourself.

    Bye Flint
