FWIW, after the release I had some time and after some trouble with my Pi4B I ran into the same problem.

So is this about 1.8.7 or 1.9.0 (as shown in the Version field)?

Reading the bugzilla report it seems that TB is loading gpgme at runtime. In particular the hints on using externally build stuff (Homebrew) is worrying. Someone(tm) needs to check how gpgme is used by TB and that it is properly initialized. GPGME is actually not designed to be loaded at runtime but should be used as standard shared object or static library.

Dependency hell - ask your favorite distribution

Sure that TB uses GPGME - they claimed they won't use it due to license incompatibility (LGPL). I assumed they use gpgme-json via naticve messaging. Regarding the error - I have no idea.

We plan this for 1.10 but it may also go into one of the next 1.9.x releases

Docs done.

Typo, sorry. I have no access to pypi and won't apply for an account due to general concerns about those platforms. Thus I can't change that page. Let me assign you this issue ;-)

No, this is a fork and we consider the use of a PyPy for GPGME a Bad Thing because it does not guarantee a stable ABI and we accept bugs files against this version.

Please let us know your gpg4win version.

I am not sure. MD5 is still important for some applications, say CRAM-MD5. IIRC, back in 2008 we dis-allowed RMD160 and added separate RMD160 code directly to gpg to fulfill FIPS requirements.

Okay for 1.9.

Note: The commit in master (1.9) is rCe0898d0628789414
and in 1.8 it is rC03e6d6597198ee

The commit which fixes this is rC761a1a0d30

Lowered priority because in reality it is not possible to get a certificate for an arbitrary SigG key on the card. Only accredited CAs may issue certs and they want to keep full control over the key generation.

I can't replicate this on the command line. Anyway option -T is only valid with --create. Further the archive format is specified to carry utf8 filenames; thus --utf8-strings won't have an effect on --extract. Are you sure that Kleopatra runs

gpgtar --create --utf-strings -T -

and you pass utf-8 encoded filenames on stdin?

If you encounter this error message when running gpgconf --list-options gpg:

gpgconf: Option gpgconf-gpg.conf, needed by backend GnuPG, is not absolute

please simply create an empty file /etc/gnupg/gpg.conf or wherever your global configuration files are expected ("gpgconf --list-dirs sysconfdir" shows it). Bug fixed with commit rG9f37d3e6f307a9

Thanks for your answers. If you see another problem with kleopatra, please test the latest Kleopatra version which we will release the next days.

The code has been reworked to also support the updated schema which also stores the fingerprints and a parsed down mail address. See gnupg/doc/ldap/ . These changes are in master and 2.2.26. Sorry for taking so long to fix that.

I agree to the sexp change - but it should not be backported to 1.8

The listing shows that the private keys are stored on a card ("sec>", "ssb>"). Why do you think you can still export more than a stub key? If I export a test key (just the primary key in this case) and run "gpg --show-keys" on the exported file I get the expected "sec>" marker. Looking with --list-packets at it we get:
