jcross added a comment to T2289: UI says “Secret key is available.” in gpg when it is not.

I took a look at the source code and now understand what is going on here.
The code indicates: One or more secret keys (primary or sub) were found.
But the UI message suggests that the secret key of the current (primary) key was
found, hence my confusion.

Here are some ideas:

  1. EASY: Update the message to indicate it is generic and not specific to the key

being edited.

OR

  1. HARDER: Improve the logic so the message is specific to the key being edited.

Thoughts?

werner added a comment to T2205: GnuPG does not detect damaged keys on import.

Sorry, I can't see any problem here.

The "priotr-old" key is actually the newer key because an expiration date was
added to that copy of the key (2012-07-09) and that key has meanwhile expired.
Thus you can't encrypt using this key.

When you import the "piotr" key that is actually the same key but w/o the update
with the expiration date. Thus gpg does not chnage the exiting in key because
the existing key has a newer self-signature (where the expiration date is
stored) than the new key. So nothing changes, which is correct.

If you delete the .gnupg directory you don't have the newer key and by importing
the key w/o the expiration date you can encrypt to that key.

aheinecke added a comment to T1691: Charset / codepage problems in GnuPG 2.0.26 on MS Windows.

Thanks for helping keep track of all these issues.

Yes this only fixes the problem that has already been fixed in the last Gpg4win
Versions. So that this will be fixed in future gnupg-2.1 versions.

Still to help us better seperate the problems I would like to close this as for
me this bug was about "Wrong encoding in a localized version".

  • the more critical "passphrase with non ASCII characters" problem (as reported

only here, see T1691 (andreaerdna on Aug 19 2014, 02:36 AM / Roundup)); does this bug need a
dedicated new Issue to be addressed and solved?

I actually overlooked this in this issue. Can you please open another issue for
that. And add me to the Nosy.

  • the "utf-8 encoding of encrypted filenames" / "strange behaviour of --utf8-

strings, --no-utf8-strings and --charset options" (as reported in Issue 1409 ad
probably similar to Gpgtar Issue 1624 / Gpa Issue 2185)

If this problem was still existing with gpg4win this is still a problem.

  • the "charset weirdness searching keyserver for some non-ASCII user IDs under

non-UTF-8 locales" (as reported in Issue 1514).

This appears not to be windows specific. Also I think this works except for
cases where the Key in question is problematic. If I search on windows for
emanuel@intevation.de I get the correct Umlauts shown. Might be a Problem though
for characters that are unrepresentable in the 8 Bit codepage.

It sounds great!

So this patch, as the previous one, solves the "incorrect display of GPG 2
output translated into another language" (as reported here and previously also
in Issue 1373 and Issue 1674).

Does this patch solve also the "incorrect display of filenames with non ASCII
characters" (as reported here and previously also in Issue 1409)?

By the way, as I understand, this patch doesn't fix:

Updated Patch against libgpg-error where this code now lives.

Please apply this patch or something similiar.

The problem I can see is that with this code in libgpg-error now GUI
applications may use it which want to get "GUI Native".

Probably better to introduce a new function "wchar_to_console" ? And use it from
GnuPG. Does GPA use that conversion function?

Might be a good time for this now where gnupg master already depends on new
symbols in libgpg-error.

bernhard added a comment to T1817: Changing expiration on subkeys breaks subkeys.

Some more infos:

https://www.openkeychain.org/faq/#importing-your-own-key-from-gnupg-fails
says that this is a problem for a number of people.

Werner told me that porting the fix back would mean to basically
migrate 2.0 to 2.1, which is useless because 2.1 is already 2.1.

Another possibility would be to change --export to mix public keys (certs)
with secret keys. This would create other problems and thus is not
adviable for a stable version.

So I think this is "won't fix" because it (technically) does not make
sense to fix in 1.4 or 2.0. Solutions: Use 2.1 or wait for 2.2.
As importing implementation: Be tolerant for this problem man use the cert
information if you can.

If you can't do that we can't help you here. You should contact a commercial
supporter (cf. https://gnupg.org/service.html).

Please note that 1.4.12 has security problems and should be updated anyway.

This looks more like a problem with the way that versionnhas been build in
Fedora. I suggest to take this problem to Fedora or the gnupg-users mailing list.

werner added a comment to T1817: Changing expiration on subkeys breaks subkeys.

But the secret subkeys are not used. Or well, the keyflags should be taken from
the public key. That might not always be the case - in particular not if you
re-create the public key from the secret key.

You can of course repair it using 2.1 because there --export-secret-key takes
the public key and only adds the secret parameters.

jas added a comment to T1817: Changing expiration on subkeys breaks subkeys.

What's not clear to me if it is possible to recover a private key that is
damaged this way? If you change expiration with 1.4, the self-signatures are
lost and some key flags are changed. Is it possible to recover from that? That
is the problem I'm concerned with -- if it isn't possible to recover, it seems
people end up with damaged secret subkeys after changing expiration date on a
subkey with gnupg 1.4/2.0.

werner added a comment to T1716: Retrieving a key with --recv-key should verify the received key matches the key ID..

No, he can't. The data received from a keyserver is by defintion unreliable.
It may be any kind of trash. gpg takes care of ensuring that the data (i.e. the
keys) are consistent.

There has been a long and heated debate over this recently on whether the
additional check introduced with 1.4.18 is at all useful. In any case what you
requested is in all recent versions of gpg. I thus close this bug.
