Good day. I would like to report what I believe to be an oversight in the Python wrapper of GPGME.
I am reporting it here as it is a minor thing, and account creation is
disabled on the bug tracker at dev.gnupg.org. I would also prefer not
to make an account if possible.
In the interact(...) function of the Context class on line 1089 in
core.py it is checked whether a key is actually passed in to the
function:
if key is None:
raise ValueError("First argument cannot be None")
Which is fine when editing a key, but when interacting with a smart
card (setting the flag INTERACT_CARD) - for example to generate a key
on it - there is not necessarily a key to be edited.
In interact_start(...) on line 131 of edit.c the presence of the key is
only checked if card_edit isn't set:
if ((card_edit == 0 && !key) || !fnc || !out)
return gpg_error (GPG_ERR_INV_VALUE);
This functions is called by gpgme_op_interact(...) in the same file
which is called from Python in the aforementioned interact(...)
function.
Thus I believe that the intended behavior in Python would be to mirror
the C code and only check whether the key is None if INTERACT_CARD is
not set.
Please correct me if I am wrong and point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance
