Hi. After upgrade to thunderbird version 68.1.1, enigmail from Fedora repositories became incompatible with thunderbird.
The problem is that currently no maintainer for Fedora enigmail package & no upgrade for it & it is currently on version 2.0.8-4 which is incompatible with new thunderbird.
Now, I like to shift from Fedora enigmail (package in Fedora repositories which currently has no maintainer) to enigmail from add-on page directly. It will done as following:
install enigmail from add-on page of thunderbird directly.
But the problem is that: I did not took backaup for my PGP with private part. I’m even did not took revocation certificate to revoke my key. Is it safe to remove Fedora enigmail & replace it by enigmail from add-on package ?
Does this will make new enigmail from add-on page automatically recognize my open PGP key ?
how can I export my Fedora enigmail profile to new enigmail from add-on page, so that I can reuse my enigmail setting that I’m already set if from before when I was Fedora enigmail ? Where is the location of such profile ?
Thank you very much. But I’m asking about where can I find the profile of enigmail (not gnupg)! Where is the location where can I find my Fedora enigmail which currently not work ? I need to know this location so that I can copy it’s contents (the profile of it’s setting that I set), to the new enigmail from add-on page.

Dear I clicked “Ctrl+H” to show hidden folders & then navigate to:
./thunderbird
but I did not see addon inside it ! I saw 2 files & a folder. I opened the folder & also did not see addon ! I saw, among many other things, the following:
a file called “enigmail.sqlite”
a file called “addons.json”
an archive called “addonStartup.json.lz4”
I do not know if any of these are related ?
Moreover, now I’m facing other problem: I tried to remove old .RPM enigmail package by command line, but I received the following error for which I aborted the process:
