[sylpheed:35677] Re: Hang on a particular message

[Rich Coe]

I briefly looked at the gpgme source code.

The select() is done while it waits for the verify to complete.
I'm not sure what gpg is doing to verify the message, but I suspect
it might be fetching the resources needed, and the resource is
unavailable or something else.  This is a guess on my part.

One thing you might try is to extract the message to a file and try to
verify it from the command line, it might give you better diagnostics, 
or allow you to enable a verbose mode.

I didn't see your attachment.
