Hi Werner,
I got an earful of ||ugh Daniel's agony trying yet again to use GPG.
I am using it on an isolated system to view the very few messages that
I get that require it.
!!! I was just able to change the trust level of a key without having
to provide my passphrase! This was from "unset" to "full trust" to
"no trust" back to "full trust"! Each time I told it to save and
exit, it said: "Key not changed so no update needed." but it wrote out
the change to trust level! This is alarming! Am I missing something
crucial here?
It turns out that mutt with gpg doesn't even seem to care what the
trust setting is. I set the trust to full and it still tells me it
doesn't have trust level set, then asks me to confirm.
In doing some interoperation testing with Marc Boucher, he found a bug
in which a signature does not check out if there is a trailing space
in the text that was signed. Has this been fixed?
On another system, I tried to compile gpg1.0.1 and got this compile
error. Can you offer any advice where to go from here? I have
appended my ./configure output after my .sig
