Description

Currently, those are rather cryptic and nonsensical messages like "notepad -> notepad: signing and encryption succeded". Since the general structure of these messages changes with T6869, the messages here should also be replaced with custom, more understandable messages

Not sure, what to expect, but generally looks fine for me in gpg4win-5.0.0-beta336 @ win10:

encrypt/sign
sign only
encrypt only
decrypt/verify
decrypt
verify valid
verify expired (de)
verify missing (de)
verify revoked (de)
verify disabled (de)
verify invalid (de)
decryption of cleartext
wrong password
corrupted message

Issues found:

  • wrong password / corrupted message have no translation (expected on system DE / kleo EN)
  • error "Keine Daten" on corrupted messages (e.g. manually changing a char of the PGP encrypted message) is misleading?

Regarding the "Keine Daten" on corrupted message: the diagnistics says e.g.: "gpg: Prüfsummenfehler; c83745 - f75c60"

• ebo added a subscriber: • ebo.

well the messages are improved, if we want to improve them further, this should go into a new ticket.

And I suspect the "no data" error is not in the scope of this ticket but belongs to one of the signing issues from the gnupg26 branch.

• ebo moved this task from WIP to Done on the gpd5x board.

Ok, setting this to done, but not resolved so that timegrid will notice it and make a new ticket with more information for the "no data" message.

That message should come from gpg, but on the other hand you write the error log reports a check sum error. So what does gpg really provide here for Kleo to display?
