           Summary: Kmail messes up gpg.conf if changing debug-level
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.13.5
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: encryption
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: envite at rolamasao.org


Version:           1.13.5 (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

If changing the debug level option to basic in gpg options, gpg stops working

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Go to Configure Kmail -> Security -> Encryption engines -> OpenGPG (gpg) -> Set
debug level to -> Basic
(actual names may not be exactly that, I don't have kmail localized in english)

Actual Results:  
$HOME/.gnupg/gpg.conf file gets these lines added:

###+++--- GPGConf ---+++###
utf8-strings
debug-level basic
###+++--- GPGConf ---+++### jue 05 ago 2010 13:40:36 WEST
# GPGConf edited this configuration file.
# It will disable options before this marked block, but it will
# never change anything below these lines.

These lines cause gpg binary to crash:

user at host$ gpg --list-keys
gpg: NOTA: se ignora el antiguo fichero de opciones predefinidas
`/home/user/.gnupg/options'
gpg: /home/user/.gnupg/gpg.conf:242: invalid option

Thus, encryption and signing become unusable both from inside Kmail and at
command line until these lines are deleted by hand.

Expected Results:  
Kmail should have set up a correct set of gpg options in $HOME/.gnupg/gpg.conf

gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.10
