aheinecke added a comment to T6946: gpgv: Help automatic reject too short keys.

The min-rsa option was introduced due because the de-vs compliance allowed 2048 bit until the end of 2023 and we used a trick in our configuration file to switch that relaxed handling off with this year. I don't think that the --ciompliance option is really useful becuase it would also disallow ed25519.

A better option would be an --assert-algo option similar to the --assert-signer which we already have in gpg.

Sorry, but this is a "Wontfix" we do not support this by choice. We think that adding photos to certificates both gives a wrong sense like "I know that picture, iit must be this person" and also increases the sizes of the certificates a lot. It is in our opinion a misfeature in the OpnePGP specificationl.

aheinecke added a comment to T6708: Allow to inhibit the use of a default PGP keyserver.

Hi, ebo I would still think this is resolved. Because it was never meant that the user manually enters the value of "none" because there is no hint for the user that "none" is a reserved word. It should either be administratively configured which does not make much sense for Gpg4win or provided by the distribution. If left empty the default of GnuPG should be used. If we really want users to deactivate keyserver access by using "none" in the dirmngr.conf a much better solution would be a checkbox for this. In that case I would open a new issue.

If you need the fingerprint, why don't you take it from the revocation certificate - for many years it is in subpacket 33.
