- Make a group out of OpenPGP keyserver.
- As a first item in the Group add a label "Please note that there can only be one OpenPGP keyserver configured at at time"
- Add a checkbox "do not use OpenPGP keyserver (which internally will set the value to none)" to finish up: T6761: Kleopatra: Handle special keyserver value "none" T6708: Allow to inhibit the use of a default PGP keyserver
- Add a checkbox "Search missing signing keys when verifying a signature" to add "auto-key-retrieve" to the gpg.conf
- Show an error when adding HKP servers as an S/MIME server.
- (optional) Fix display / give an indication for misconfigured keyservers. Optional because I am not sure if we even get a useful result from gpgconf in that case.
The original report was:
I have recently upgraded to version 4.2 and discovered that Kleopatra has a problem related to keyservers configuration.
Settings -> Configure Kleopatra -> Directory services
I manually added several HKP keyservers (the same as I use in my Enigmail).
The next time I opened this configuration I saw an empty list.
Not totally empty, there were several entries, but without any text.
I can press "Edit" on such an entry, which opens an edit window with an empty serverl URL field.
The connection security radio box however seems to have the value I set when adding.
Note: tested on a Win7 VM.
As such I am uncertain what keyserver(s) Kleopatra would use when searching or uploading keys.
Apparently a key upload works though.P.S.
why the keyserver suggestion is specifically from ubuntu?
