Details

This is a tracking bug for an upstream issue in NeoMutt: when trying to write an email with PGP enabled, NeoMutt crashes directly after closing the email editor while trying to open the compose menu. I just provided a fix for this issue in the upstream pull request https://github.com/neomutt/neomutt/pull/3090, which has not been approved or merged yet.


Additional info:
* neomutt version 20211022-1
* link to upstream pull request: https://github.com/neomutt/neomutt/pull/3090

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start writing a new email to an arbitrary email address (make sure to fill out the "To" field).
2. Quit the editor to get to the compose menu.
3. Observe that NeoMutt aborts with a core dump while trying to open the menu.

The suggested fix has already been merged \o/ Since this issue potentially affects quite a few users, I suggest backporting the commit until a new release is cut upstream. A suggestion for the PKGBUILD is attached to this comment.
