werner triaged T7902: OpenPGP Cleartext Signature Framework as Normal priority.

There are a lot of other ways to confuse the user. We can't fix them all because the whole purpose of a cleartext signature is to make it easy to use in legacy environments like an BBS. Modern systems use MIME to handle this in a more stringent specified way. For any use it is stongly suggested to check the actual signed data which is avaialable with the --output options. At least a sanitizing viewer should be used which filters out all escape characters (something like cat -v |less).

I guess this is easy to explain:

  1. gpgconf/gpgme reads the LDAP server from the global config
  2. You add a second LDAP server (I don't think it matters if it's the same as the one from the global config or different one)
  3. When you save the LDAP server then gpgme/gpgconf writes both LDAP servers to the local config
  4. When you now read the LDAP servers you get one from the global config and two from the local config
