Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

As per https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:OpenPGP:Smartcards we need gpgme to support external gpg decryption for using yubikeys or other hardware tokens.

After confguring all the stuff, I get

Successfully loaded optional OpenPGP library libgpgme.dylib from additional standard locations GPGMELib.jsm:59:13
gpgme version: 1.14.0-unknown GPGMELib.jsm:231:15
configuring GPGME to use an external OpenPGP engine /opt/local/bin/gpgconf - failure: 117440662 GPGMELib.jsm:247:15

in thunderbird logs and a crash report from within gpgme ,which I will attach.

I'm not sure how to fix this, to be honest. I'm not even sure if this is a problem in gpgme or Thunderbird.

I've no clue, what's running wrong. I've had combination of thunderbird/gpgme, which worked and after some thunderbird update the combination ceased to work.

Hence, it should be some memory issue.

The thunderbird code calling libgpgme is here:

https://github.com/mozilla/releases-comm-central/blob/master/mail/extensions/openpgp/content/modules/GPGMELib.jsm

AFAICS, they load the shared lib, call gpgme_check_version() and gpgme_set_engine_info(), where the crash occurrs.
