Mmh or even select all expired keys and then refresh them.

Multi select makes this nontrivial. But I think only with multi select this would really be useful. But yes it is a nice item for the backlog. E.g. if you know that a company switched their mail domain you might want to refresh all the keys from that company and you could do that with filter + multi select and refresh.

For me with Gpg4win 4.2.0 it works as expected, that is all UIDs which have a checkmark are certified in one go, entry of password only once. Used the key given in description for the test.

After the fix everything after the Signature block is now silently discarded

Changing debug options unfortunately didn't change much.

works

works

The certification of certificate groups (first two points of T6469#174361) is mostly done.

OK, so after debugging the issue and finally digging into the code I realized that I don't see the fix I did the first time....it turned out I committed the fix to release/23.04 branch but forgot to merge it into master and as such the change did not make it to 23.08 - which is probably why it seemingly "came back" after you upgraded. I've cherry-picked the fix to release/23.08 branch and merged it to master.

works

This can be resolved I tested this myself and gave a beta to the affected customer which also worked for them

works, VS-Desktop-3.2.0.0-beta214

I'm late on the train, but (talking about Kleopatra) there is a menu entry to refresh all keys, but I miss a RMB (right mouse button) context menu for the list of certificates to refresh just the current one (much similar like the feature requested, but "one UI level higher").

An emoticon in a file below the folder to be encrypted does not hinder encryption via GpgEX.

It's been a few years since this task has been active.

Here's another data point.

works, tested with VS-Desktop-3.2.0.0-beta214.
For the remaining issue with a certain date range see T6736

Lot's of things changed in the meantime.

HKP keyservers are anyway out of fashion and thus we won't put anymore effort into his part of the code.

Lot's of changes since 2.4.

The choice in the calendar "widget" changed to in 1/2/3 years in all cases. Those options work but the last choice "no date" has no effect.

Eva and me tested this using our 2.2.42 release candidate on Linux and
on Windows and were not able to replicate your problem.

Works, setting "compatibility-flags vsd-allow-ocb" in the gpg.conf causes new keys to be generated with the AEAD feature flag OCB. And encryption to that key then uses OCB mode as long as the compatibility-flags is set.
