Enable S/MIME backend without extra deps, enabled if gnupg2 installed
Are the startup/shutdown scripts still needed for something? gpg-agent seems
to be started without any extra tweaks when I've got gnupg2 installed and log
into KDE.
Anyway, here's an alternative without using any new dependencies: just pass the
path to gpgsm in configure and the "base" S/MIME support is enabled.
gpgsm/gnupg2 doesn't have to be installed at build or runtime, but if it is
present when run, the KMail S/MIME backed is enabled, and kleopatra no longer
refuses to start (the latter will need gpg-agent running).
I think this would be a good addition to the FC package. I've added explicit
path to gpg too, so that even if gnupg is not installed at build time, support
for it gets compiled in.
A reasonable workaround at least until gpgme gets into Core. kdepim then uses it's own local/static gpgme copy at build time if the shared-lib isn't available. I'll have to revisit the gpg-agent issue. Dunno how gpg-agent is getting started for you, but without the script in /usr/env kmail gives me warnings about gpg-agent not running. Hm, I just remembered that I run keychain, http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/keychain/ , that's probably it. Recent versions of it have added gpg-agent support, and although I don't remember specifically configuring any gpg-agent stuff for it, maybe it starts it by default OOTB. Anyway, I think that's a non-blocker wrt. my suggested patch in comment 3, and that gpg-agent stuff needs to be enabled somewhere else than KDE-specific startup/shutdown dirs so that non-KDE users can enjoy it as well. Possibly xinitrc.d. But that's offtopic here... I'd love for gpg-agent stuff to go in /etc/profile.d, but there's no analogous location for logout/shutdown scripts. It would be a waste to keep gpg-agent running when not logged in. OK, simpler approach (so we can actually make some progress)... I'll just put
the gpg-agent-(startup|shutdown) scripts in FE's gnupg2 (so they can
theoretically be used by non-KDE/gnome folks). All that is required now (as
Ville suggested) is for kdepim to be built with ./configure options:
--with-gpg=%{_bindir}/gpg --with-gpgsm=%{_bindir}/gpgsm
Patch from comment 3 still applies with some line offsets. +1 to applying it. ping...
kdepim now has
--with-gpg=%{_bindir}/gpg
but we're (still) missing
--with-gpgsm=%{_bindir}/gpgsm
kdepim-3.5.3-5 already includes the patch from comment 3. Thanks for your reports |
