werner lowered the priority of T6481: BEGIN_ENCRYPTION status output happens later in 2.4.1 (breaks Emacs's EasyPG) from High to Low.

We have a fix for now and thus I lower the priority. Given that EasyPG mimics the GPGME API we should here also use another pipe to convey the passphrase (e.g. for symmetric encryption).

Kleopatra is a 64 bit application, right? For GnuPG we are working on 64 bit support for Windows. This is planned for 2.6. problems are how to represent sockets, file descriptors, streams and so on. Regarding the time interface, we should have everything ready in the GPGME<->GnuPG interface. In GPGME we need to check that we don't use int instead of time_t, though. When that has been done/fixed we could use a 64 bit gpgme and kleopatra along with the 32 but gnupg. Might be easier for approval reasons.
