Package: gnupg2 Version: 2.1.7-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? I upgraded my system, which installed gnupg2 from 2.0.28-3 to 2.1.7-2 * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Try to decrypt a message with gnupg2, e.g. with 'gpg2 --decrypt' * What was the outcome of this action? Pinentry answers me "Passphrase too long", and decryption fails. * What outcome did you expect instead? The message to be decrypted Please note that the very same things works with the 'gpg' command. I think that this is upstream issue 2038 (https://bugs.gnupg.org/gnupg/issue2038) Thanks for working on gnupg in debian! -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (900, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.1.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages gnupg2 depends on: ii dpkg 1.18.2 ii gnupg-agent 2.1.7-2 ii install-info 6.0.0.dfsg.1-3 ii libassuan0 2.2.1-1 ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.6-8 ii libc6 2.19-19 ii libgcrypt20 1.6.3-2 ii libgpg-error0 1.19-2 ii libksba8 1.3.3-1 ii libreadline6 6.3-8+b3 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 Versions of packages gnupg2 recommends: ii dirmngr 2.1.7-2 Versions of packages gnupg2 suggests: pn gnupg-doc <none> ii parcimonie 0.9-2 pn xloadimage <none> -- no debconf information
