Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: trixie
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected], [email protected]
Control: affects -1 + src:kleopatra
User: [email protected]
Usertags: pu
[ Reason ]
The version in Trixie is affected by #1120106, that makes it impossible
to use Kleoatra to decrypt files from terminal or from the GNOME shell,
Nautilus (file browser in GNOME).
[ Impact ]
GNOME users cannot really use Kleopatras features.
There are workarounds:
* You can open Kleopatra anf than select the file to decrypt.
* Similarly, if Kleopatra is already running, then double clicking on an
encrypted file will work.
* Once a single .gpg file has been decrypted in either of these ways,
subsequently .gpg files can be decrypted by double-clicking. They will
open in Kleopatra as expected, regardless of whether Kleopatra is
already open. This needs to done once every time Tails starts.
The bigger picture - Kleopatra is used within Tails and it is
recommend in the SecureDrop workflow (Tails 7.x is based on Trixie):
The SecureDrop (https://securedrop.org/) workflow for journalists, who receive
information from whistleblowers, relies on the functionality to open
pgp encrypted files from a file browser.
In the context of Tails they made it smoother by adding
a application/pgp-encrypted=org.kde.kleopatra.desktop file association.
[ Tests ]
The patch is provided by upstream and is released within KDEPIM 25.04,
so this patch was tested by a lot users already.
I tested this patch manually on my system and on Tails [1].
Uploaded a patched version to unstable. As unstable still has the same
version than stable (extect a patch to build against GpgME 2).
GpgME 2 is a backend that Kleopatra uses, that is not important in this
context.
https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/21281#note_273448
[ Risks ]
The patch is narrow and short, so I think we will not end up with
new issues.
[ Checklist ]
[x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
[x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
[ Changes ]
Added an upstream patch and updates its hunks.
[ Other info ]
You are dooing a great job! Many thanks for doing the release work.

+Subject: [PATCH] Rework pinentry parenting on wayland
+
+The previous approach didn't work well when multiple kleopatra windows are
involved, since we always exported the main window.
+Instead, we now listen to the focused window changing and always export this
one. KWindowSystem makes sure that we don't actually
+export the same window twice and that windows that are deleted are cleaned up
properly, so this shouldn't leak any resources.
