The error will pop-up. Have you tried installing the packages that provide these=20 functions into your profile? You'll have to figure out what they=20 are, but I'm guessing =E2=80=98Encryption System=E2=80=99 is gnupg. ;-) This is really a bug in Claws (=E2=80=98unhelpful error messages=E2=80=99),= not=20 Guix. Just adding gnupg to the claws-mail closure (an exta 26.5 MiB or=20 4%) does not appeal to me personally, especially since the same=20 message for dictionaries would remain anyway (they are optional by=20 definition). I think improving the error messages is a better=20 approach. It's not our habit to do so, but perhaps we could patch them to=20 explicitly say =E2=80=98please install the "gnupg" package=E2=80=99 if upst= ream=20 is unresponsive.
