    The Subject says it all. The wizard found GnuPGP (green check mark), Then the next line is centered ans says, "Checking your existing setup... with a black cursor chasing its tail in a clock-wise direction.

    How long should this take, more than 15 minutes?

    I'm running Kubuntu Linux 18.04.03LTS. AMD Phenom 2 core 3.2GHz with 8GB of RAM. Thunderbird has worked flowlessly for years. Please advise.

      I bet you're using Enigmail 2.1.4 or older. Please upgrade to Enigmail 2.1.5 - I fixed a bug for exactly this problem.

    Actually, it's Enigmail 2.1.2. Thank you for the response and help. I'll upgrade immediately.
