Can be tested with next VSD 3.3.x build.

I have added the changes/patches to the vsd-3.3-branch of gpg4win

The relevant changes have been merged to the gpg4win branches of kleopatra and libkleo. We can start creating a test build

Parts of the changes made for T7183: Kleopatra: Reduce certificates offered in Sign/Enyrypt dialog have been reverted. The drop downs for selecting the signing key and the "encrypt to self" key now offer the primary user IDs of usable keys again (instead of all user IDs of usable keys) and there's no button to open a certificate selection dialog anymore.

This one made me curious because updating the should be UI solved, and it is incredibly dangerous to mess with that. It is super easy to get random crashes when you invalidate the UI too much. It took me ages to get that "stable enough". But also technically an appointment request is a mail. And thanks to dan (afair), KMail can sign and encrypt invitations. And at least for signed invitations they are displayed as appointment so I looked into this a bit out of curiousity.

Backported for VSD 3.3.x

yes please!

Fixed:

That error code is actually not an error code but it is the ERROR state from the Kleo SFM. We have seen that yesterday already.

this exact case is fixed in VS-Desktop-3.3.90.12-Beta
Adding further UIDs and making more certifications still works, too.

Very likely this bug exists since 2017 when support for promotion of local certifications to exportable certifications was added.

Fixed in gpgmepp for gpd5x. I think for VSD 3.3 we'll add a patch to gpg4win.

yeah, I did not have exactly the same setting for the tests in the different versions… so no regression

After further investigation it looks like this bug exists since quite some time.

The state machine in GpgSignKeyEditInteractor expects to see GET_BOOL sign_uid.okay and it should have answered with Y.

The dialog between gpg and Kleopatra looks like this:

[GNUPG:] KEY_CONSIDERED FADC4675146CFAF3D86F137E1D3C5E6E3DB3C71D 0<LF>

and then nothing else.

with VSD-Beta-3.3.90.10:

this is not yet in master and not included in the current testbulid

My above comment is true for the main case described in the ticket, cancelling decryption followed by "permanently decrypt".

I see no improvement in VSD-Beta-3.3.90.6, the issue persists.
Btw: Is this maybe related to T7596: GpgOL: Draft is not decrypted after cancelling decryption once?
