Description

Hi.

Problematic component:
Nemo Seahorse

Problem:
I noticed that when I right click on *.gpg or *.pgp files, the decrypt menu entry doesn't appear, which is odd.

How to reproduce:

  1. Exit Nemo
  2. install nemo-seahorse pacakage,
  3. Start Nemo
  4. Locate either a *.gpg or *.pgp file
  5. Right click on that file
  6. Observe of how Decrypt is not there

Excepted behavior:
Decrypt menu should also appear, in order to decrypt the encrypted files.

Specs (its a KVM virt system)

Research direction

Start by inspecting the Nemo Seahorse component linked in the issue and reproduce the missing Decrypt entry with the listed Nemo restart and right-click steps on a .gpg or .pgp file. Done means the Decrypt menu entry appears for both file extensions and the behavior can be verified in Nemo.
