@bvieira You need to set pinentry-mode=loopback for gpg program used in git.

I'm actually trying to do the following:

In the meantime you can use [0]. I have tested with ssh key on yubikey and AuthenticationMethods publickey, win32-ssh (or ssh-portable, which is the new repository name) correctly works with gpg and pinentry is called. Despite it being called wsl, wsl environment is not required.

Pushed modified patch to master and 2.2.

That patch fixes the build problem I got into today when trying to build 2.3 for windows. So ? from me and please commit the patch as it is already required when assuan and gpgrt config no longer emit ws2_32 in their pgk-config --libs line.

I just saw that there is related discussion and a patch for this in T4994 so I will close again here.

This change broke for me the compilation of GPGME which I fixed with: 52f930c1ed7eee6336a41598c90ef3605b7ed02b I found that fix there OK because GPGME explicitly uses ws2_32.

Linking $(NETLIB) is required when the executable uses WSAStartup.

Any news on this?

I just learned that WSAStartup can be called multiple times. So, it doesn't cause any erroneous behavior which I had been afraid of.

Thanks for looking into this. However, I do not understand the problem behind it. Is it the need to link against the socket lib? 10 or 15 years ago things were more complicated because two TCP stacks were in use and you could use the modern one only if a certain service pack or Explorer version was installed. That might be the reasons for some of the peculiarities we have in the code.

Given the situation we have call of WSAStartup in assuan_sock_init (for Windows), the solution would be:

• Removal of call of WSAStartup in _init_common_subsystems
• Even though it is not needed for POSIX system and it is only needed to call WAStartup on Windows, calling assuan_sock_init from each application (including gpg, gpgsm, dirmngr/dirmngr-client, and tools/* which uses libassuan), would be the solution (not perfect one, though, because it allocates sock_ctx)

Sorry, I was confused by assuan_socket_ API and assuan_sock_ API.

No info received

I am not any longer interested to see the real cause; eventually we will replace it anyway with a modern CreateProcess.

Here are the fixes:

diff --git a/common/init.c b/common/init.c

   set_native_charset (NULL);

Call of WSAStartup in dirmngr/http.c is no problem, as we define HTTP_NO_WSASTARTUP.

This fix reveals the problem of: T4994: Windows: assuan_sock_init or WSAStartup by main/_init_common_subsystem

I see no reason to not allow decryption of an entire folder recursively. The user knows what they are doing by right-clicking a folder instead of a file. You can show a progress dialog with a cancel button.

Right. GpgEX is in serious need of polishing. I'm not sure if I'm in favor of processing all files recursively. But then the decrypt option should not even be shown.

Attaching the actual program

3.1.11

Please let us know which version of Gpg4win you are using.

Added variable value

set language
LANGUAGE=en_US

I launched the Kleopatra again. I did not notice any changes.

Thanks for your report. Yes this is sadly a known issue. Our backend system has it's own localization that uses the system language and does not care about the Kleopatra configuration.

With the fix of T4623, this bug is now fixed.

Fixed in master, using Libs.private support.

Although I don't use the ssh client on Windows I had to integrate the Windows ssh server into our release process (GlobalSign sent us a Windows-only token, for the new cert and so we can't anymore use osslsigncode). The ssh server is really stable and so it makes a lot of sense to better integrate our ssh-agent into Windows.

Current situation of *.pc: static linking is not supported (yet).
It has never supported, actually, by *-config.

There will be no full solution for this. However, the next release should in general work due to a 400ms delay we use after spawning the viewer. This is configurable; see rG7e5847da0f3d715cb59d05adcd9107b460b6411b.

I guess you are the only person who does it. But yeah. I agree that it should be fixed.

Actually the temp file is created but because the photo viewer is run as a detached process and gpg keeps on running, the temp file has been removed by gpg at the time the photo viewer tries to open it. Ooops. The correct behaviour would be to wait for the photo viewer to be finished. We use

That was obvious. rG6fc5df1e10129f3171d80cf731f310b9e8d97c26 fixes this.

When doing a "gpgsm --with-validation -k foo" (assuming you have a cert foo) gpgsm now goes into a loop and prints the certficates that match "foo" over and over again. I have not tested if it was caused by this change but I think it is likely.

I imported 39 certificate files at once with Kleopatra with about 700 certificates and it worked. Took a long time though so It would be nice if Kleopatra would show a progess indicator or some indication that the import is running. But this is a different issue.

The last lines that the process currently holding wrote in the log:

To reproduce this issue I started Kleopatra with an empty GNUPGHOME and imported 10 S/MIME certs at once (which spawns a gpgsm process each) with enabled logging.

As this update lists multiple issues and following fixes for them, maybe it was resolved by Microsoft?

Well, I deinstalled gpg 3.1.7 and reinstalled it. For some reason my two gnupg smart cards work fine, but my two Yubikeys cannot be detected anymore (no such device). But in the last weeks, they were deteced, only the switching between Yubikey and Smart Card made some trouble. That they cannot be recognized is new and makes real trouble. If you think it would maybe helpful, I can submit a scdaemon.log file by e-mail.

I've applied your patch with an additional comment to our master branch. Thanks!

gpg4win 3.1.6 is released which contains this fix.

Sorry, this did not make it into 3.1.6. But I'll definitely see about it for the next release. If it is an institutional / corporate issue you could also contract us through www.gnupg.com

fwiw. Your patch is beautiful in which it follows our coding style and
debug output. I'm confident that we will accept it but currently I have
to read up on Job's a bit.

Is there a way I could help you with this? This issue is hampering adoption
of GnuPG 2 here.

Trying to install the update manually (according to windows update my windows is fully updated) it says "This update is not meant for your computer" and aborts.

Can you please run

gpg --debug ipc -vK

which will also start gpg-agent and print some diagnostics. You may want to redact the output. You can also run

gpg-agent -v --daemon

which should also print some more info.

thanks for the report. Yes this is a known issue. This pinentry is so basic that it does not have dynamic layout as we don't include GUI libraries in the basic installer. For a better pinentry you can install Gpg4win.
In the future we are thinking about adding a pinentry based on the small "FLTK" toolkit, with dynamic layout.

I reviewed the multibyte handling in GnuPG and you are right, there is a general problem because we use ReadConsoleA and basically GetCommandLineA, so there is no way for multibyte input unless a parameter file is used. Output is also broken, but that is easier to fix iff the input case has been fixed.

fwiw. Your patch is beautiful in which it follows our coding style and debug output. I'm confident that we will accept it but currently I have to read up on Job's a bit.

That is a very interesting problem that we did not have on our radar.

I want to have this fixed for the next release so prio high.

Oops. Assignee removal was an accident. Sorry for the noise here ;-)

Just as a note: To workaround this you can also place "no-use-tor" into %APPDATA%\gnupg\dirmngr.conf (you might need to create that file) %APPDATA% expands to something like "c:\users\yourname\appdata\roaming"
