On macOS _NSGetExecutablePath could be used, but iiuc this requires linking against dyld. For other OSes we would also need more code. I doubt that this makes a lot of sense these days; but we should come up with a solution, even if that means we need an envvar to specify the location of that open gpgconf.ctl file.

It would be convenient if the -c option could be easily set in the gpg-agent.conf or in some configuration file for pinentry. The workaround that I use now to create a script that I can then use as pinentry-program is extra work because it requires an additional script.

gniibe added a comment to T5636: Run integrity checks + selftests from library constructor in FIPS.

It seems for me that the patches to random/ was written in old days.

  • Now, we have getentropy in libc
    • This is most reliable one
    • better than urandom, because it may block when kernel is not yet seeded
    • better than random, because it never blocks once kernel is seeded
  • So, the real path in rndlinux.c is actually, call to getentropy
  • No access to /dev/random or /dev/urandom any more, in fact
  • Although old code remains, non-touched
    • like use of syscall when getentropy function is not available

Just adding this note because a next step I'm also evaluating in my current T5593 configuration status it to temporarily create a new Gpg4win 3.1.16 hybrid configuration by also adding latest GnuPG v2.2.31 to see if all issues I reported here are still present (which is also quite probable).
Also because of T5593 it would just be quite interesting to see if GnuPG v2.2.31 too might experience same T5593 path related error.
