Description Roland Wolters 2010-07-02 19:29:00 EDT

Description of problem:
Curerntly gpgme is of version 1.1.8. This is heavily outdated, and currentl desktop encryption software like KDE's Kleopatra require at least a gpgme version equal or larger as 1.2.0. Without it, the S/MIME encryption does not work properly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.1.8

How reproducible:
Start Kleopatra, run self test, and you get a warning the gpgme is outdated and needs to be updated to properly contact the gpg-agent.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Fedora and KDE.
2. Launch Kleopatra's self test.
3. Watch and sob.
  
Actual results:
Kleopatra cannot properly connect to gpg-agent.

Expected results:
It should work without a flaw.

Additional info:
GPGME is available in version 1.3.0 for over half a year. 1.2.0 is available for more than a year. There is no need to wait with the updates. Plus: cryptographic software should be handled with extra care, and updates should be done regularly to be on the safe side.

Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2010-07-02 19:45:34 EDT

You sure Kleopatra's failed test(s) aren't just due to missing
gnupg2-smime
?

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2010-07-02 19:54:41 EDT

In the meantime, I've prepped a gpgme-1.2.0 update, but will wait until after the holiday weekend to commit anything,
scratch build:

Comment 3 Roland Wolters 2010-07-02 20:35:38 EDT

Hey Rex, no, I have everything installed:
$ rpm -qa|grep gnupg
gnupg2-smime-2.0.14-2.fc13.x86_64
gnupg2-2.0.14-2.fc13.x86_64

Anyway, is there a *reason* why gpgme was kept on that old version?

Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2010-07-02 20:52:29 EDT

no reason I'm aware of.

Comment 5 Rex Dieter 2010-07-13 17:09:26 EDT

built for rawhide.
