Comment (by sukhbir):

 Replying to [comment:2 intrigeri]:
 > The torified-dirmngr-compatibility branch on https://git-
 tails.immerda.ch/torbirdy.git adds an option that allows one to address
 this use case. I've applied these changes in Tails for our 3.0 version,
 that uses Modern GnuPG, and therefore is affected by this problem.
 Feedback welcome!

 Thanks for the patch!

 This seems like a good solution in light of the GPG changes, compared to
 the HTTP proxy solution we have right now, which I feel is essentially
 broken.

 Before I merge: is there a reason why the
 `extensions.enigmail.agentAdditionalParam` preferences were removed?
