The reset was due to running gpg-connect-agent reset /bye. I am currently testing something elese will get back as soon as I can turn back to 2.4

gniibe added a comment to T7044: Deadlock on Windows in sdaemon.

There are two locks here; (1) rw_lock for card_top (list of cards) access and (2) individual card lock.
It looks for me that:

  • don't know how/what the thread 7208.2 does
  • the thread 7208.3: KEYINFO, then PKSIGN (gets read lock for card_top, then, individual card lock)
  • the thread 7208.4: SERIALNO --all (and wait for write lock for card_top)

ikloecker added a comment to T6926: No tray icon for Kleopatra in dark mode on Windows..

And another note: In KF6 icon inverting happens automatically in ksvg or so, so that we don't need to ship breeze-dark anymore. And there will be a BreezeIcons library including the icons that can be used instead of the RCC file. This means we just need a quick fix for VSD and not a general solution for upstream.

ikloecker added a comment to T6926: No tray icon for Kleopatra in dark mode on Windows..

One more data point: breeze-icons installs a copy of all breeze icons that do not exist in breeze-dark in the breeze-dark icons folder. So, with icon files on disk breeze-dark has all icons that breeze has even without using breeze as fallback icon theme. Looks like an oversight that the breeze-dark RCC generated by breeze-icons doesn't include missing breeze icons.

ikloecker added a comment to T6926: No tray icon for Kleopatra in dark mode on Windows..

KIconTheme sets the fallback theme name to breeze, but those icons cannot be found because we only load the icon theme RCC for breeze-dark. I think we need to load both RCC files in dark mode. No, that doesn't work.

aheinecke lowered the priority of T6630: Platform independent starter from High to Wishlist.

werner I strongly disagree here. There is no need for this for our software on Windows and that is definitely not the Windows way, esp. with our current feature set. Do you really think a user wants to start "GnuPG VS-Desktop" to then have a selection between Okular, Outlook, and Kleopatra? That is not how this works at all. Definitely not High priority for us if you think Kleopatra is too hard to discover then we could add another start menu entry for Kleopatra called "GnuPG VS-Desktop" but a starter that only offers to switch between Okular and Kleopatra currently does _not_ have high priority, For windows this is solved with the windows registry, If you want to make Okular - GnuPG Edition your default PDF reader you can, similarly for Kleopatra and please also keep in mind that a user wants to "Encrypt" or "Decrypt" a file. And does not necessarily care about Kleopatra.

werner raised the priority of T6630: Platform independent starter from Wishlist to High.

FWIW, we also need this for Windows. ppl often ask what to do after they installed VSD because they can't find a program. Thus a menu ala Kontact is the way to go. It would be linked directly from a GnUPG Desktop entry from Windows. We can even keep the old Kleopatra becuase it does not harm. Whether the "menu" is a container window or a detached windows can be decided by the user, like GIMP and other tools do this.

@gniibe Am I misunderstanding something? I thought that with this change one is able to connect from a Windows box to a Linux box and have GPG agent forwarding work. I am still hitting pretty much the same issue described here: https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH/issues/1564
On my Windows endpoint I'm running gpg.exe version 2.4.0.49237 and in C:\Users\mate\AppData\Roaming\gnupg\gpg-agent.conf I have a single line enable-win32-openssh-support. Running gpg-connect-agent.exe reloadagent /bye I have a gpg-agent running. Get-Process gpg-agent shows that it's running. In my Windows env I have SSH_AUTH_SOCK set to \\.\pipe\openssh-ssh-agent and my Linux endpoint is configured in SSH config with

ForwardAgent yes
AddKeysToAgent yes
RemoteForward /run/user/1015/gnupg/S.gpg-agent C\:/Users/mate/AppData/Local/gnupg/S.gpg-agent.extra

As the remote end reports /run/user/1015/gnupg/S.gpg-agent that socket for agent-socket when issuing gpgconf --list-dirs and my local gpgconfg.exe --list-dirs reports C%3a\Users\mate\AppData\Local\gnupg\S.gpg-agent.extra where I transform %3a to \: manually. SSH authentication works perfectly, when connecting pinentry-qt pops up to unlock my key and when connecting to yet another machine, my SSH agent is forwarded again. However, gpg fails to use my agent. Issuing gpg --list-secret-keys --verbose prints the following to the console:

gpg --list-secret-keys --verbose

What is missing to tie the knot on both ends without having to resort to 3rd party tools like @rupor-github 's agent-gui? The remote gpg version is 2.2.19, is that the issue? Must that also be 2.3.9+?

Putting up for grabs and removing Kleopatra tag since for Kleopatra users this has been fixed (unless they manage to trigger multiple separate concurrent imports in Kleopatra).

@ikloecker You are right, I only thought of public key import. Then lets serialize this. Might even make for a nicer Progressbar if we count the outstanding files.

I have an Idea. Can't we read all data into memory in Kleopatra (for Certificates this should be ok) and then give this to GPGME as a single data object. So that only one process imports multiple files?

I really don't want to bypass gpgme and then parse the import results and all other status output of gpgsm ourselves. I'll go for Andre's suggestion and serialize imports of multiple files.

Thanks all. It is a bug in Win32 OpenSSH. https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH/issues/1953 it is already fixed. I think the issue will be resolved after the update is shipped. I could use ssh -T git@github.com as a workaround.

werner added a comment to T3883: Add Win32-OpenSSH support to gpg-agent's ssh-agent.

This does not look like a problem in GnuPG/gpg4win because gnupg implements the ssh-agent protocol and not the ssh server or client functionality. ssh tells sshd whether it shall allocate a PTY (Pseudo TTY). I don't use ssh with github but it is likely that you may only run commands (which don't require a PTY). Usually you would invoke a "git" command cia ssh.

I meant bypass the gpgme engine and call gpgsm directly. Maybe using gpgme's spawn engine. But I am not sure whether this is really a good idea. If we can find a way to pass multiple filenames to gpgsm --server that would be better. But requires updates to gpgsm.

@werner Do I understand correctly that by "It might be easier to bypass the gpgsm and run gpgsm directly" you mean using gpgsm in server mode? Or what do you mean with "bypass gpgsm and run gpgsm" (which seems contradictory).

With 100 concurrently running gpgsm processes they all try to get the lock for the keyring. And they need to do this several times and often also for the same certificate (fetched from an external resource to complete the chain). Not good. It might be easier to bypass the gpgsm and run gpgsm directly instead of adding a feature to gpgsm to directly import from many files.

Sure, we could do this. Shouldn't make the ImportCertificatesCommand much more complex than it already is.

aheinecke reopened T4505: SM, W32: GPGSM hangs up the GnuPG System as "Open".

Reopening this as there still seem to be ways to run into a deadlock as was reported in RT#13361. While I still think this points to some issue in gpgsm, when Testing this I found the behavior of Kleopatra to be wrong.

Not so fun fact: If you enter tcp://1.2.3.4:10001 (literally) as value for gpg-agent's log file, then on save gpgconf calls
gpg-connect-agent --homedir /home/ingo/dev/g10/.gnupghomes/utf16 --no-autostart RELOADAGENT
which hangs (probably trying to connect to the not existing IP address or to the blocked port). This also makes Kleopatra hang.
