Package: gnupg
Version: 1.4.2.2-1
Severity: normal
Messages clearsigned and then "decrypted" may not return the original
message. In particular, a newline may be added.
% echo -n hello > out
% ls -l out
-rw-rw-r-- 1 andrew andrew 5 2006-04-06 15:51 out
% gpg --clearsign out
% gpg --decrypt --output out2 out.asc
gpg: Signature made Thu 06 Apr 2006 03:51:09 PM PDT using DSA key ID
43ABB76D
gpg: Good signature from "Andrew Pimlott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
% ls -l out2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 andrew andrew 6 2006-04-06 15:51 out2
If you clearsign both "hello" and "hello\n", you will see that they
result in the same "SIGNED MESSAGE".
