jaromil added a comment to T2027: Non-breaking space in French translation.

Sure. The issue of consistency across translations is just nitpicking.

The issue of parsing is solved as +notabug for gnupg, since the bug was actually in
ZSh - and is now fixed. Even in older Zsh version can be avoided by decoupling stdin
and stderr in the parsing, basically using --status-fd. I should have done that in the
first place. Apologies for emphasizing this here, as Gnupg offers all the correct
facilities to decouple the output streams.

Unrelated with the issue above, I still think that normalization of white-space usage
across different translations would be an improvement, but since doing it requires a
semantic analysis that is contextual to the language, its quite hard to realize now.
Perhaps a good idea that documentation for translators include a note about white-
space usage. But again, this is nitpicking. Feel free to close the issue.

I don't think it makes sense to wait longer for a response.

What we can take with from this report and similar in the past is that the
asprintf emulation (von gnulib) is troublesome. We should eventually replace
them by the libgpg-error printf functions. It is a dependency anyway. We only
need to bump up the required version.

gniibe added a comment to T2122: unexpected 'merging secret key blocks is not anymore available' error.

Ah... It is finally reproducible for me.

The problem is: '-i' doesn't mean importing. You need to use '--import' to
import keys. '-i' means '--interactive'.

'gpg -i file' just tries to parse the file. Secret key parsing became
unsupported in 2.1.x.

Decrypting works successfully, I should have specified earlier. Here is output-

I am also attaching sec , the decrypted sec.asc in case you are not able to

According to this

Thank you for your cooperation.
I think that the message was emitted by 'gpg -d' (not 'gpg -i').
Could you please confirm that by invoking 'gpg -d sec.asc' alone?

In my environment (Debian testing), the symptom is not reproducible with 2.1.8,
2.1.9, and development version of gnupg. It is decrypted with no problem, and
it is imported with no problem.

If you know there is Arch Linux specific patch, please let me know.

soulsescape added a comment to T2122: unexpected 'merging secret key blocks is not anymore available' error.

Ok, so after further exploration, the error is related to the way I am encrypting
the exported secret key blocks. I Do NOT get this error importing private keys
made wit
h gpg -a --export-secret-keys. However, if I symmetrically encrypt the secret key
file, I get the 'merging secret key blocks... ' error. I did this in output-
log.txt whi
ch is attached.

This leaves me with 2 questions:
How should I encrypt my secret keys after I export them in a way that doesn't
break things?
Is there a way to get back my secret key that was encrypted earlier and gives me
this error??

I am also attaching sec.asc
the symmetric password is 'password', as well as the password protecting the
private keys.

My operating system is Arch Linux. There was no configuration file (I cleared
~/.gnupg before the session in output-log.txt).

Oct 26 2015, 8:56 PM · Bug Report, gnupg
gniibe added a comment to T2122: unexpected 'merging secret key blocks is not anymore available' error.

Please do that:

$ script output-log.txt # which invokes new shell
$ gpg --version

And run your gpg commands of exporting and importing keys.

$ exit

Then, you have a file 'output-log.txt'.
Please describe your oparating system and your configuration file.

Gniibe, thanks so much for responding btw. Ok, there is a new update:
I made a new keypair for personal encryption while my current one is being sorted
out, and the EXACT same error happened when I tested my backup of it. There is
either user error on my part in the --export or --import commands, or a bug in
the way GnuPG imports or exports keys.
Therefore, I want to replicate the issue with an example@example.com key for you.
Before I do so, is there a preferred way for me to log the session so I can send
it to you along with the public and private keys?
