I added --ldapserver to gpgsm because of confusion of what a keyserver is. Right now we see a problem only with this alias but it is a more general problem with aliases. My patch to master was a for public testing - let's discuss this on the phone.

The above change now also makes gpgconf from master ignore the keyserver option in gpgsm.conf.

$ gpgconf --version
gpgconf (GnuPG) 2.3.5-beta17

For what it's worth: I suggest to remove the ldapserver alias of gpgsm's keyserver option in GnuPG 2.2 and 2.3 again. It was added not too long ago (in June 2021) and it was added after the new dirmngr/ldapserver option was added. The alias is causing regressions and trouble with its only benefit (as far as I can see) being that dirmngr has an option of the same name for the same purpose.

For X.509 servers Kleopatra currently looks at gpgsm/keyserver with a fallback to dirmngr/LDAP Server. The gpgconf interface change

* tools/gpgconf-comp.c (known_options_gpgsm): Rename "keyserver" to
"ldapserver" and set level to invisible.

in rG0b4fdbd5f41e: gpgconf: Return --ldapserver and --keyserver from dirmngr. breaks configuration of X.509 servers with existing versions of Kleopatra. I suggest to revert this change to unbreak Kleopatra.

Thanks for report. Those powerpc vector implementations expect that compiler optimizations are enabled and here provided CFLAGS did not have '-Ox' parameter. This could be worked around by introducing -O2 always when building those files (confiugre.ac & cipher/Makefile.am change) or using 'optimize' attributes to required functions (cipher/*-ppc*.c change).

Turns out that the aliasing is a problem; if we allow keyserver as an alias for ldapserver in gpgsm.conf we are not able to get the value unless we add dedicated handling for this. Test in 2.3 but we will have the same problem the other way around in 2.2.

What does kleopatra use to get the list of ldap servers - gpgsm or dirmngr?

The problem comes from the way we handle an alias. That actually depends on the order the options are specified.

There are reasons why we don't used pcsc-shared by default; for example: Not all OpenPGP cards support reading the current verification state (whether a PIN has already been entered) and thus we use a local cache for this. Other shared applications may change the state behind our back or even switch to another application on the card. Thus we use the safe way.

Thanks for report. I got similar report earlier this week from gentoo user through email and made following patch for them to test. I'll push it to master soon.

Thanks

gpgme_key_t is a different kind of object than a gpgme_foo_result_t and thus has different properties.

The bug with the long filenames has been fixed but it is not yet released. Release will be in gpg4win 4.0.1 See T5754.

Hi gniibe,

Unfortunately, gdb session log and ktrace log don't have enough information to locate the cause/problem.

While trying to test the X.509 directory server configuration in Kleopatra, I stumbled over difference between 2.2 and 2.3 and a possible regression in 2.2.

thanks, looks good!

that's great news to my eyes. thanks werner!

Excuse me you are right of course. man gpgconf | grep quot says it all.

man gpg | grep quote nor man gpgconf | grep quote does not tell anything about it. I recognized the single opening quote of "string at post processing the output of gpgconf --list-options to generate a gpgconf.conf template. I just expected a closing quote for "string".

From which version on there will be global config files? The only info I found was about /etc/gnupg/gpgconf.conf and /etc/skel/.gnupg/* to manage presets.

@werner Hmm, okay. So I have tested the wrong thing. To me /etc/gnupg/gpgconf.conf looked very much like a global config file I was supposed to test. I have looked at /etc/gnupg, found the example gpgconf.conf and played around with it. It had some effects (see above), so I assumed that it should work. Since it's obvious from my tests, that it doesn't really work as documented anymore, all corresponding code should be removed entirely (or fixed if it should be kept for backward compatibility).

ikloecker: gpgconf.conf ist not anymore used since we have the global config files.

With /etc/gnupg/gpgconf.conf

all options are correctly flagged as "no change" in the output of gpgconf

More weirdness. With gpgconf (GnuPG) 2.2.34-beta23 I get:

--apply-defaults is an obsolete option because we now have global config files. I would also like to get rid of --debug-level but that won't be easy. Using --debug LIST_OF_DEBUG_FLAGS is a more versatile way of specifying debug options.

Nope. The double quote indicates a string. See the man page.

Thank you, applied.

Thanks for looking into this, @gniibe! over on https://bugs.debian.org/1003313 Helmut is asking for a re-consideration because he wanted to match arm-linux-musleabihf. Would you be ok with a change like my proposal rE371d1c952297f781277b979a4662859ec80fe836 (on branch dkg/expand-musl), that expands *-*-linux-musl to *-*-linux-musl* ?

After commenting out the options that gpgconf 2.3 complains about I get:

$ gpgconf --version

I tried to see what gpgconf from master says, but I only get

$gpgconf --list-options gpg
gpgconf: unknown option 'try-secret-key' at '/etc/gnupg/gpgconf.conf', line 95
gpgconf: unknown option 'reader-port' at '/etc/gnupg/gpgconf.conf', line 96

This also doesn't look right:

The following looks very much like a bug.

Example:
/etc/gnupg/gpg.conf:

default-key B81CE112B26A8EA8BE7B95D2E375339BF4C51840

With rG8c878ae4c9dfa9fe26aa15f4f9db3e86833575e9 some rules for allow-mark-trusted were removed from doc/examples/gpgconf.conf, but the comments below which are supposed to explain the example rules still talk about allow-mark-trusted.

sorry, I'm a bit confused now and probably everything I wrote above is incorrect.

thanks for approving account.
build error happens in automatic configuration (when --enable-ppc-crypto-support is omitted from ./configure) and -mcpu=powerpc64le, -mcpu=power8 or power9 or -mpower8-vector flags are not passed to compiler.

Backported to 2.2, too.

On behalf of @gyakovlev (pending approval for his account):

[03:05:23]  <@gyakovlev>  AC_DEFINE(HAVE_COMPATIBLE_CC_PPC_ALTIVEC,1,
[03:05:23]  <@gyakovlev>         [Defined if underlying compiler supports PowerPC AltiVec/VSX/crypto intrinsics])
[03:05:34]  <@gyakovlev> they should definitely check for __POWER8_VECTOR__ 1
[03:05:44]  <@gyakovlev> it's not plain altivec
[03:06:52]  <@gyakovlev> that power check should check for __POWER8_VECTOR__
[03:06:52]  <@gyakovlev> not only for what they check already.
[03:08:59]  <@gyakovlev> it probably should be checked after __powerpc64__ or instead of it.

Looks like it's triggered if e.g. -mcpu=power9 isn't in CFLAGS.

Build log here:

You'll have to talk to the people you got pinentry-mac from.

I don't know about pinentry-mac but it seems to be another name for
one our our regular pinentry variants.

We provide lots of different flavors of pinentry, but we do not provide pinentry-mac. You'll have to talk to the people you got pinentry-mac from.

Thanks for diving into the history of that code.

Here is the backport to 2.2:

In the original code, register_trusted_keyid is used in keygen.c, so that it updates user_utk_list, thus, will be into utk_list.
This should be done, by adding the keyid to utk_list directly.

Things have been a bit buggy here (probably, since the beginning).
In g10/trustdb.c,

Thank you, @gniibe ! i'm applying your change to the debian packaging as 1.43-2. i'll let you know if it doesn't satisfy the folks trying to crossbuild debian on top of musl.

Thank you.
Applied.
