That is an old bug report with a couple of fixes introduced over the years. As of now we sometimes see hangs on Windows on our test VMs. The common cause here seems to be USB card reader issues. Let's close this bug and wait for another bug report with current software versions.

• werner closed T6961: On Windows the gpgtar --status-fd 2 does not show the gpg status lines as Resolved.
Oh, well it does happen only with --status-fd=2 because of a c+p error by me. For status-fd > 2, as used by GPGME, there is no problem, because this is handled by an exception list.

• werner moved T6379: Kleopatra: Brainpool key can not be moved to smart card from QA to gnupg-2.4.4 on the gnupg24 board.
• werner raised the priority of T6620: Add a way to extract ECC key parameters from a public key from Normal to High.
Just a reminder, this is important for 384 bit keys (see T6379).
• werner moved T6379: Kleopatra: Brainpool key can not be moved to smart card from Restricted Project Column to Restricted Project Column on the Restricted Project board.
The state of the brain is:
doc: Minor typo fix.
These gpgsk files are standard private-keys-v1 files with an additional Backup-info line showing for example the keygrip.
There are no certificates in the file, thus we can either use gpg or gpgsm as driver.
No test environment in our QA dept.
• werner moved T6831: May chose a signing key from a not inserted card over an inserted one from QA to gnupg-2.4.4 on the gnupg24 board.
• werner closed T6831: May chose a signing key from a not inserted card over an inserted one as Resolved.
Fixed in 2.4.4. Feel free to re-open if you still see problems.

• werner closed T6741: gpg 2.3+ may display garbled characters for date and time in non-English Windows as Resolved.
No regression, assuming things work.
• werner moved T3380: Use exponential backoff when spawning agent and dirmngr from QA to gnupg-2.4.4 on the gnupg24 board.
Hard to test without instrumenting the code.
• werner moved T6796: gpg does create socketdir after every operation from QA to gnupg-2.4.4 on the gnupg24 board.
Tested during development.
• werner moved T6902: gpgconf: the questionable value 256 for flags in gpgrt_opt_t from QA to gnupg-2.4.4 on the gnupg24 board.
Tested for 2.4
• werner moved T6710: Improve Speedo for Linux to set DT_RUNPATH. from QA to gnupg-2.4.4 on the gnupg24 board.

Fixed in 2.4.4 and 2.2.43 - see above for affected versions.
• werner moved T6919: Add support for smartcafe cards from Restricted Project Column to Restricted Project Column on the Restricted Project board.
Works for the two sample RSA cards. Ticket may eventually be re-opened if we run into problems with ECC cards.
Fixes are already in GnuPG 2.4.4 and can't be easily tested. Thus closing also for gnupg24
