   About a week ago I updated to claws-mail-3.7.8 which broke my
pgpcore etc. plugins. Thus leaving me without a means to
decrypt all my passwords.

   I upgraded to gnupg-2.0.16...would configure but not MAKE.

   I then tried gnupg-2.0.15...same thing..would configure
but not MAKE. Both throwing multiple errors with very
little info on how to fix.

   Installed the following:(All source tarballs)

   gnutls-2.10.4
   gpgme-1.3.0
   gpgme-1.2.0
   gpgme-1.1.2
   libassuan-2.0.1
   libassuan-2.0.0
   libetpan-1.0
   libg15-1.2.7
   libgcrypt-1.4.6
   libgpg-error-1.9
   libgpg-error-1.10
   libksba-1.1.0
   pinentry-0.8.1 (would configure but not MAKE)
   rsaref
   
   All were source tarballs that were configure,
and MAKE on my os. Linux CentOS 5.5 x86_64.

   I had absolutely no luck installing rpm's.

   Not sure what else that I did, but the only
gnupg that finally configure, MAKE, MAKE iNSTALL
was gnupg-1.4.11.

   That seemed to fix my pgpcore plugin for
claws-mail-3.7.8. Plugins are from the
claws-mail-extra-plugins-3.7.8.

   Hope this helps someone, and saves them
wasting a week. <g>
