Kleopatra: Incorrect handling of unset keyserver in configuration dialog
Testing, NormalPublic
Actions

Description

If no keyserver is configured for GnuPG then Kleopatra's configuration dialog shows


i.e. the option "Use OpenPGP keyserver" is erroneously checked and the input field shows the not very user-friendly default value "hkps://none" (as reported by gpgconf) as placeholder text.

Expected:

  • The option "Use OpenPGP keyserver" is not checked if no keyserver is configured for GnuPG
  • The input field should not show anything
