Yo all! I went through some of the older bug reports of gnupg - I'd like some input whether I should act as suggested, or rather not. All of those bugs are more than 1 year old.
Greetings -- vbi http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=101502 "gnupg: gnupg uses wrong key" gnupg using a signing subkey instead of the primary is perfectly legal - imho this is not a bug, but maybe gnupg's default behaviour changed. Close that bug? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=94238 "gnupg: Sparc version of gnupg in potato 2.2r3 is linked with libc 2.2" Given that it is tagged potato, and potato doesn't even receive security support anymore: close it? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=107374 "Local signatures can be exported" Fixed in sarge. Tag it woody? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=146691 "gnupg: Keys whose secret is available are not automatically ultimately trusted" Not a bug to begin with. Documentation was there from the beginning in NEWS.gz Last addition to the bug report: can it be closed? Close it? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=48077 "gnupg: Permission problem on importing keys" Merge with #38857 ("gnupg: no way to copy a key") - it's the same problem: gnupg's handling of multiple keyrings sucks http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=48323 "gnupg: can't sign a gpg key with a pgp key." 25.10.99; last activity 1.10.2000 Since it's very old: ping Adam if it's still there with 1.2; clear with gnupg folks if gnupg is even supposed to be reading pgp's keyring files? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=53918 "--always-trust option is ineffective" 1.0.1 --always-trust works for me in 1.2.1. Close? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=55647 "(both slink and potato) corrupt data when used as filter" 10.01 and 0.4.3 Already tagged potato. Close? Or ping submitter (there's no resolution on the bug log)? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=61914 "confusing question in gpg key generation process" Change severity to minor? Many, many people have successfully generated a key... http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=94882 "Gnupg strips whitespace in output" This is not a bug, as noted by Brian Carlson Close it? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=96878 "kmail hangs displaying pgp-signed mails" I'm using kmail... (but kmail from unstable) ping submitter, and tag/close appropriately? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=109675 "Gnupg erroneously claims "secret key available" in specific case" 1.0.6; last activity 22 Sep 2002 ping submitter? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=113897 ""Oops: lock already hold by us" when using --fast-import" 1.0.6 seems to be fixed in 1.2.1 - close or ping submitter? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=118931 "voodoo with marginals-needed=3 in gnupg" 1.0.6 ping submitter (or probably I should try to reproduce this myself, first). http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=130363 "Duplicate key is handled as error" 1.0.6 Can't reproduce this with 1.2.1. Close? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=133353 "wrong use of setlocale in g10" 1.0.6 I believe this is fixed. Not sure. Ping submitter? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=133923 "Reports bug on --list-keys" 1.0.6 Ping; close and/or tag woody? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=136970 "Fails to read secret key, so can't decrypt anything" 1.0.6, also unreproducible and pretty much resolved I agree with Thomas Hood: should be closed. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=146863 "Overwrites permissions" 1.0.7 Fixed in 1.2, so should probably be closed (dunno, probably the bug is present in 1.0.6, too, so should be tagged?) http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=124219 "does not show new user ID revocations" Exactly as above http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=148242 ""pref"/"showpref" --edit-key command on V3 keys" More of the same -- featured link: http://www.pool.ntp.org
