[Pkg-xmpp-devel] Bug#987876: Gajim update invalidates encryption settings

[Patrick Schleizer]

Package: gajim
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-CC: whonix-devel at whonix.org

Quote https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/issues/10527

> Steps to reproduce:
> 
> Configure gajim to encrypt messages using OMEMO to a specific contact
> Update Gajim to 1.3.1
> Restart Gajim, update the plugins
> Try to send a message
> Expected outcome: the message is encrypted, encryption settings are "OMEMO"
> Actual outcome: the message is not encrypted, encryption settings are "unencrypted"
> 
> This is a security issue, because users might send messages thinking they're going to be encrypted, unaware of the fact that the upgrade reset the encryption settings.
