[request-tracker-maintainers] Bug#964879: Bug#964879: Bug#964879: request-tracker4: FTBFS: broken by libgnupg-interface-perl

[Andrew Ruthven]

Hey,

It took a bit of digging.

This is caused by an interaction between RT and GnuPG::Interface. I
believe that RT is using the GnuPG::Interface correctly.

GnuPG::Interface knows the version of the GPG binary being used, and
uses the --pinentry-mode argument if that is supported - which needs
gpg v2.2. If the binary is changed after the object has been
instantiated then the version isn't changed.

I've updated our libgnupg-interface-perl with a patch to fix this, and
submitted it upstream here: 
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=133021

Cheers,
Andrew
