I discovered something interesting while setting up an strace. It seems that each time KMail freezes it leaves a GPG
process such as:
9712 pts/4 SL 0:00 gpg --batch --no-sk-comment --status-fd 23 --no-tty --charset utf8 --enable-progress-filter
--with-colons --fixed-list-mode --with-fingerprint --with-fingerprint --list-keys --
59D4A470EEF69DCC525EEBA60937CF0F4530DEAF
This is regardless of whether or not I tell it to sign (let alone encrypt) the message.
The end of the strace look like:
[snip]
gettimeofday({1128476701, 519511}, NULL) = 0
ioctl(6, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0
write(7, "\0", 1) = 1
pipe([20, 23]) = 0
fcntl64(20, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
pipe([25, 26]) = 0
fcntl64(25, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
clone(child_stack=0, flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD, child_tidptr=0xb5c85708) = 9711
--- SIGCHLD (Child exited) @ 0 (0) ---
write(9, "\0", 1) = 1
sigreturn() = ? (mask now [])
waitpid(9711, [{WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 0}], 0) = 9711
close(23) = 0
close(26) = 0
select(26, [20 25], [], NULL, {1, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
select(26, [20 25], [], NULL, {1, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
select(26, [20 25], [], NULL, {1, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
select(26, [20 25], [], NULL, {1, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
select(26, [20 25], [], NULL, {1, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
..many more of the same, you get the idea...
Turning off the GPG plugin completely in the KMail settings seems to fix it! So apparently something is screwed with the
GPG config. Ideas of where I can start with fixing this?
Thanks,
Brendon
