Hello all,
I use Mozilla Thunderbird along with the enigmail plugin. Whenever I
update world, it updates Thunderbird, which then tells me to manually
re-install enigmail. However, since I generally update world while I'm
away, I usually forget to re-install enigmail, which means that when I
want to send a message, my PGP options aren't available.
Is it possible to have portage automatically re-install the enigmail
plugin (or other similar situations)?
Kevin

Crypt is enabled in my use flags. The problem isn't on the initial install - enigmail installed with no problems. The problem is that if I upgrade thunderbird, I need to manually re-install enigmail before I can sign and encrypt. I'm looking for an automatic way to re-install enigmail when required, and not when it's not required.

Hi,
Try exchanging thunderbird with enigmail in your /var/lib/portage/world.
Do it manually, no problem as one of the duo is in world (+crypt
USE-flag).

Still doesn't work. The problem is that deps aren't updated unless they also require an update. Since enigmail doesn't require an update, it doesn't re-install. However, thunderbird can't see it unless enigmail is manually re-installed, no matter the USE flags or world ordering.

Hi,
Looking in the thunderbird ebuild:
PDEPEND="crypt? (>=x11-plugins/enigmail-0.95.1 )
So if PDEPEND <> DEPEND it should re-emerge enigmail after an update.
enigmail just DEPENDs on TB.
But agree that this might not work.
