New submission from Bernhard Herzog <[email protected]>: The default value for the agent's pinentry-program setting set by gnupg 1.9's configure is <bindir>/pinentry. Unfortunately this is neither of the three actually existing pinentry programs, so unless the user define's a suitable pinentry program in his ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.cont, the agent won't be able to start a pinentry at all and it will be difficult for the user to figure out what went wrong. The error message in the KMail window is simply "No secret key". I think at some point configure actually chose one of the existing pinentries by default. ---------- assignedto: werner messages: 992 nosy: bh, werner priority: bug status: unread title: gpg-agent: default for pinentry-program topic: pinentry ______________________________________________________ Aegypten issue tracker <[email protected]> <https://intevation.de/roundup/aegypten/issue206> ______________________________________________________
