Thanks. A few hours too late for 1.9.2.

Backport was done with commit rC1d312bc65846 (for unknown reasons it did not show up in the list of bugs related to this bug; I added it by hand). Fix will go into 1.8.8.

The mix up of external patches and commits makes it not easy to see what has been fixed. AFAICS rC3d095206c30d fixes the last bug mentioned by @ballapete on Jan 26.

Fixed with rCa5799f1618aaf1bbb52e7e121275228dd4a3ac8b

There is a message telling you what is missing. Thus I can not consider this a bug. There are just too many dependencies which are required for cross-compiling that the README can only tell about those which we don't expect to be installed on a developer's box.

They are mandatory for gnupg but not for Libgcrypt and Libgpg-error. I guess we can fix that.

This does not look like a bug report. Please ask on a mailing list for help.

There is still useful software working only with 2.7. So it is not the time to drop this.

A page feed character is a very common and useful control character. In fact Emacs knows how to jump page by page.

A beta release is available as https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/alpha/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.9.2-beta16.tar.bz2 (https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/alpha/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.9.2-beta16.tar.bz2.sig).

How does it come that you have a Linux kernel without threads? Or maybe the better question is why does libc not support threads?

For 2.3.0 we won't be able to fix all bugs./feature requests. Instead we l will solve that in the 2.3 series.

Works for me.

dirmngr needs to be killed for this. gpgconf --kill dirmngr.

Meanwhile we introduced the keyboxd which should solve such problems. It will be marked experimental in 2.3 but I expect that it will soon be used as the default way to store keys - at least under Windows.

Won't be done because the expectations of users are different on whether they use ssh-agent or gpg-agent. And it breaks scripts

I would not all this an accident.

The now used /var/run thingy solves all these problems nicely. In fact we may eventually remove the use fallback of using sockets in the GNUPGHOMEDIR.

We have the --unwrap option which already does this. The problem here is that an addition compression layer is not removed. Therefore I will rename this report to add a feature strip things down to a signature or literal data packet..

Eventually we will move to keyboxd which is already an experimental option in 2.3. Thus we won't do anything here.

The gpg-card is more flexible than the old gpg stuff. If there is something missing we will add it over time but it does not make sense to keep this request open.
