Reporting upstream is not always easy. E.g. the KDE bug system knows nothing
about kgpgcertmanager but a package of this name exists.
The only thing I found was:
http://bugs.kde.org/simple_search.cgi?id=kgpgcertmanager
The bug there is closed and kgpgcertmanager still _always_ crashes. So, it is
not obvious if this is a packaging or upstream problem. Maybe you can tell, I
cannot.
I would then have to file the bug upstream against kmail? kgpgcertmanager does
not even depend on kmail. And now?
BTW: Is there any way to get the upstream maintainer email address or URL
without downloading the source package?
