Yes, it will fix the problem on x32, I suppose.
If it's difficult for dpkg, for some reason for now, workaround for gpgme packaging is disabling pie hardening for x32 until pie will be its compiler default.
For gpgme, it is only test binaries which matter (pie or not), so, the impact (for x32) is minimum.

on #debian-dpkg on IRC, Guillem Jover suggested that we might want to fix dpkg specfiles to use +self_spec: instead of *self_spec:.

Some information of Qt5 about -fpic:

• https://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/development/2015-May/021557.html
• https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1700435

Debian's GCC build for PIE default: https://salsa.debian.org/toolchain-team/gcc/-/blob/master/debian/rules.defs#L1400

Here is my understanding. My point is it's not problem of gpgme. To fix it correctly, I think that dpkg should be fixed and it would be needed to fix Qt too.

I'm still not understanding what specifically should be fixed here. Sorry to be dense about it, but the range of options and configuration details that are different are pretty puzzling.

I think that it is the problem of dpkg to override the compiler flag by the spec file. When compiler default is -fPIE, it works well. If not (for the case of x32), it fails.
In the past, hurd-i386 had same issue, but compiler default seems to be now -fPIE, thus no problem.

Thanks for your report.

Parsing and creating of certs does now work. I was not able to find sample CMS objects so this part is not yet finished.

Closing with Info Needed.

hello
thanks for the feedback
it s indeed exchange 2007 (migration planned on long term)
we will try the imap workaround

There was a similar Problem in the past reported on our mailing list:

PS I forgot to say why movement to cmake will be the best way.

I totally disagree.

Please read libgpg-error's README. For each architecture we need to have a dedicated config file - this has nothing to do with autotools. Big and little endian variants are obviously different architectures. Here is an excerpt from the README

Hello @wener, I want to say that libgpg-error is the only one (!) application that fails to cross compile using valid toolchains: "armeb-unknown-linux-gnueabi" and "aarch64_be-unknown-linux-gnu". It compiles and runs perfectly using "arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi" and "aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu", but fails with big endian. I see project are actually using "hton/ntoh" so we shouldn't see this error. What this problem is about?

Hi
FYI here is what I did to resolve:
running gpg.exe and gpg-agent.exe as Administrator and XP mode....
gp-agent:
set service Priority to REALTIME
Disabled Windows UAC virtualization.

OK, I identify the problem.

But this problem remains for several versions for some time. I tried to find out the source of this "new option" in the communication, but I could not find anything about "GPG Agent" in the source code of openssh.

Sorry for the late answer, but I have been busy. Actually this happened against several ssh versions, for some time now.

For information, I can’t reproduce here, either with GnuPG 2.2.17 / Pinentry 1.1.0 or with a fresh build from the tip of the master branches. Both pinentry-tty and pinentry-curses prompt for the password as expected, independently of whether the file to decrypt is specified as an argument or sent through standard input.

@dkg, I changed the title and adjusted the description to more accurately describe the situation.

@skeeto can you edit the summary/title of this ticket to better reflect what you think the underlying issue is?

Those changes make the script work for me, specifically passing the input as an argument and not through standard input. Digging more, it looks like the underlying issue is related to using pinentry-tty (my case) or pinentry-curses when passing the OpenPGP input via standard input. This causes pinentry to give up before prompting. For pinentry-tty it fails with "ERR 83886340 Invalid IPC response" and pinentty-curses fails with "ERR 83918950 Inappropriate ioctl for device".

Thanks aheinecke and dkg.
I havent been able to replicate the fault using the command line (using the exact same command and options that our program is calling)
however our R&D dept have,
The next time it fails and we can replicate it we will try the --homedir fix and see if thats it.
Its the same user in the program and command prompt so we dont think its a certificate issue.

I'm also not sure how to classify this issue. I'm giving it low priority for now as we do not have the info to determine if this is a program error.

Thanks for clarification.
However, CCID_CMD_TIMEOUT should be then based on BWT value reported by the card/reader, as bulk_in() function will still timeout if BWT is longer than 5 seconds.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I was confused by the hard-coded timeout value and got it all wrong.

I realized that it's a product of token. Then, I suggest that implementing time extension correctly, if some operation doesn't finish in BWT (block waiting time).

In general, if it requires more time, a reader can reply with time extension.

What's Trustica Cryptoucan?

All my keys are RSA 4096. It worked fine with OpenPGP smart cards and with two Yubikey 5. On all devices a set of RSA 4096 keys were geneated on the device itself. Only one card failed. But even the card which failed, generated at least the signature key in RSA 4096.

Please let us know what kind of key and how large, like RSA-4096 or ECC Brainpool.
For RSA 2048 or larger, yes, it takes too long.

I disabled the dependency rules for the figures (it's only enabled for maintainers).

Which SSH client are you using?

It's complicated to have a good solution, because we need to change assumption (serial number identifies keys).
