Package: gpa
Version: 0.9.0-2
Followup-For: Bug #634930
Dear Maintainer,
Some info on the status of this bug on a fresh wheezy.
- Install wheezy with the installer beta2
- Install gpa
- Start gpa
- I get three dialogs. I can't click/close any of them
1. GPA error
The GPGME library returned an unexpected error. The error was:
General Assuan error
This is probably a bug in GPA.
GPA will now try to recover from this error.
2.
You do not have a private key yet. Do you want to generate one now
(recommanded) or do it later?
3.
GnuPG is rebuilding the trust database. This might take a few
seconds.
- On the terminal, I get the following message:
** Message: switched engine to `/usr/bin/gpg2'
- I had to kill gpa from a terminal to close it
- I installed 0.9.3-1 from experimental and I got the same behaviour.
- I created a public/private key pair using the commandline, then start GPA: I
still get the "General Assuan error" but I can click close, and then
use the GPA interface. However, most actions throws "General Assuan
error" and fail
Thanks by advance for your work,
Kjö
