Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kmail
when using sign feature with kgpg now Kmail says "not the good passphrase"
without asking for it ; to have this feature to work did follow this procedure :
(1) setting a key with gnome (could not do it with kgpg and reported bug
accordingly),
(2) use-agent not commented in "~/.gnupg/gpg.conf"
(3) addition of :
pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-qt
no-grab
default-cache-ttl 1800~/.kde/
in file "~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf"
(4) installation of the file "start-agent-gpg.sh" in when using sign feature
with kgpg now Kmail says not the good passphrase without asking for it ; to
have this feature to work did follow this procedure :
(1) setting a key with gnome (could not do it with kgpg and reported bug
accordingly),
(2) use-agent not commented in "~/.gnupg/gpg.conf"
(3) addition of :
pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-qt
no-grab
default-cache-ttl 1800~/.kde/
in file "~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf"
(4) installation of the file "start-agent-gpg.sh" in "~/.kde/Autostart" with
following content :
#!/bin/bash
if grep -q '^use-agent' ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf; then
eval "`gpg-agent --daemon`"
fi
(5) installation of the file "shutdown-agent-gpg.sh" in "~/.kde/shutdown" with
following content :
#!/bin/bash
[ -n "${GPG_AGENT_INFO}" ] && kill $(echo "${GPG_AGENT_INFO}" | cut -d ':'
-f 2)
#!/bin/bash
if grep -q '^use-agent' ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf; then
eval "`gpg-agent --daemon`"
This worked fine until an update of Kmail happened.
Something also that hapens regularly ; Kmail like all other KDE
application do not have the "bug report" feature in "Help" menu working
with no usable error message when run from aconsole.
Regards.
