Hushmail troubles...again

2005-09-09 Thread John B
Hi all, I've tried over the past week to send encrypted e-mails to a friend with a Hushmail address from Kmail on SuSE 9.3 . I've got his key on my keyring and when I hit the 'send' button, it brings up the gpg window showing the key I'm using and all that and I enter my passphrase and it

Second problem...gpg or kgpg?

2007-04-06 Thread John B
Hi again, Out of the blue, it seems kgpg doesn't see my .gnupg directory. I opened it up the other day just to check something, and it showed no keys at all. I went into the settings and all it allows is to see my /home/me directory which has a couple of .asc keys(?) in it but had no gpg.c

Un-revoking a key pair

2007-04-06 Thread John B
Hi gang, Somehow the other night I accidently imported a revoking thing for my main secret and public key pair when I was using kgpg. Kgpg tells me I need to un-revoke it in the manual editor, so, could someone tell me a quick and easy way to do so, please? Is it possible to un-revoke? __

Having trouble building rpm of 1.4.7

2007-05-28 Thread John B
Hi gang, I figured I'd try to upgrade and build an rpm myself in krpmbuilder. I've done it before with a few apps, so it's not 'too hard' for me, but with gnupg 1.4.7 I keep getting the error(s) at the end that read thus: RPM build errors: File not found: /var/tmp/build-root-gnupg/opt/
