I have tried all this - but I still get the same errors even after restarting my laptop. KGpg fails to start Kleopatra keeps warming me of errors and enigmail refuses to send mail unless I force no signing force no encryption. If I try to use gpg2 in enigmail it shuts down completely refusing to do anything. The more I do the more it seems that I do not fix this problem. All I get is the same error message from enigmail: Error - key extraction command failed /usr/bin/gpg --charset utf-8 --display-charset utf-8 --batch --no-tty --status-fd 2 -a --export 0x8716853A gpg: WARNING: unsafe enclosing directory permissions on configuration file `/home/david/.gnupg/gpg.conf' gpg: /home/david/.gnupg/gpg.conf:6: argument not expected I'm getting brain ache!!
