werner added a comment to T1143: better heuristic for choosing an encryption key based on a User ID.

We can implement that in 2.1 after having replaced the current keyring based DB
with the Keybox based one. The latter is far more efficient and does not
require sequential scans all the time. Some breakage will anyway happen and
thus a new selection strategy, i.e. a well defined one, won't harm either.

If this is pursued, I suggest doing it as a subsystem external to GnuPG. GnuPG
can generate keyserver information files (via --keyserver-options
use-temp-files). An external program can gather these files and manage them
however it likes, then pass them to the keyserver helper programs when it is
ready to.

For obvious reasons the mailto scheme is not very useful. It is not even build

to batch up keys for later retrieval is a nice feature - it should hwoever not
be limited to the mailto scheme.

More info:

  • scd killscd works when in the replug-without-hibernate case, for hibernate, a restart of pcscd is needed (probably not a scd problem).
  • when I don't issue any commands to scd while the reader is unplugged, I can re-plug it anywhere (same or different usb port) and scd recognises this as a USABLE->ACTIVE->NOCARD->USABLE transition chain
  • when I issue a SERIALNO command while the reader is unplugged, I get "Card Error" back (sitenote: shouldn't that be a ERR_NO_CARD_READER?) and that one sticks until a KILLSCD.
  • this is not the case for other commands (tested: GETINFO version).
