Thanks for doing all the detective work on this. :)  Your patch gets
things to a (mostly) functional state. The one thing that's still odd is
that I can open the OpenPGP/Preferences dialog, but clicking Ok doesn't
close the dialog. It does however save the changes to prefs.js, and
cancel will close it.

Oh, and FWIW I'm also using gnupg 2.x.


hth,

Doug
