Patch has been applied to Kleopatra. See T5619: Kleopatra does not create the UI-Server socket in the socketdir.

Okay.

Not from understanding. libkleo adds high-level functionality that's useful for KDE applications, but out-of-scope for gpgme and its C++/Qt wrappers gpgme++ and qgpgme. I would use GpgME::dirInfo() directly in Kleopatra. It would make sense to add an overload of GpgME::dirInfo() that takes an enum, so that one does not have to use the low-level string names in Kleopatra. The downside is that a string-based interface can be extended easily. OTOH, deprecating values of a string-based interface is hard and after removing it the compiler won't complain.

We want to deprecate the whole UI-Server thing and thus I considered it better to provide the generic socket dir instead of adding support in libkleo for the uiserver socket. For the time being, doing this in Kleopatra sounds better to me. From my understanding. libkleo shall be an interface to gpgme++, right?

gpgme_get_dirinfo does already have support for "uiserver-socket" since about 7 years. I don't think a separate "socketdir" which requires a brand new gpgme makes much sense.

For Kleopatra this patch

It will be useful to have support in libkleo:

Finishing development for now.

I have added shortcuts to the checkboxes and the (first) visible filename requester. I have not added shortcuts to the two buttons because the first one is anyway the default button, i.e. it reacts on Return, and the Cancel button reacts on Esc.

AllowSetForegroundWindow did not work but the code from pinentry works even without the minimize / raise. The minimize raise is only required for the proper input focus and a nice animation for pinentry but the QWindowsWindowBehavior is already sufficient.

I am pretty sure that an AllowSetForegroundWindow in the kuniqueservice_win implementation in Kleopatra will alleviate this issue. Since we pass a double click on a file which has foreground window permissions to the existing process which at this point may not have foreground window permissions. If this still does not help we can do the minimize / maximize trick.

Ingo, I have tested this on Windows with NV Access and was able to symmetrically encrypt and decrypt a file with closed eyes. I went through the windows explorer context menu to select sign & encrypt on selected files.
Can you also do some more tests on Linux ( I do not know how to properly enable a screenreader there ) and if you find anything ugly fix it.

Forgot to mention one thing: after changing my user folder directory I lost all my Outlook contacts. I was able to recover them... make sure you have a backup before attempting this!

I just had the same issue as hurui200320. My user name contains a "ç" and Kleopatra did not start. The Windows event logger reported a crash in libstdc++-6.dll. This was with gpg4win-3.1.16. Installing gnupg 2.3.1 did not change anything.

This patch for libkleo fixes the build. Alternatively, updating extra-cmake-modules to 5.80 (where the target-variant of ecm_qt_declare_logging_category was added) fixes the build.
