The GnuPG ebuild hardcodes a photo viewer myconf="${myconf} --with-photo-viewer=${viewer} From gnupg doc: --with-photo-viewer=FIXED_VIEWER Force the photo viewer to be FIXED_VIEWER and disable any ability for the user to change it in their options file. 1. It should not force a specific viewer, by default the viewer can be set in the config UNLESS you specify it at compile time with "--with-photo-viewer", thus, that line in the ebuild should be disabled. 2. IF you want to force users to use a fixed viewer you have to use at least a correct config currently it is "--with-photo-viewer=/usr/bin/xloadimage" which WON'T work. you have to use --with-photo-viewer="xloadimage -fork -quiet -title 'KeyID 0x%k' stdin" (be careful with the quotes) which happens to be the default if you don't specify "--with-photo-viewer" at all Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. include Photo-ID in GnuPG key 2. try to view it 3. will not work, no matter what you try as /usr/bin/xloadimage is hardcoded which also is not a correct gnupg photo-viewer string This also affects tools like Seahorse.
I never used images.... What happens if you don't specify with-photo-viewer or disable-photo-viewers and you don't have xloadimage or xli installed? Does gnupg still works (apart of images), or we still need to keep the dependency?
GnuPG will always work, it just won't display the photos if you specify a wrong photo-viewer in the config or on the commandline. You can also just use e.g. cat like --photo-viewer "cat - > Pic0x%k.jpg" which will just put the image into a file or use a script to send the image somewhere else, thus there is no real dependency to any X-application.
crypto: Unless someone has a good reason, I think I will drop the dependency (adding elog) so users may install a filter for their choice.
sounds good Alon
OK. Fixed in: gnupg-2.0.3-r1 gnupg-1.4.7-r1 Daniel, please verify that this is what you wished for.
Great, thanks, that's it. Now if only someone could update the seahorse ebuild as in bug 128780 (the ebuild in portage requires gnupg 1.4.x) then i could clean out my portage overlay a little bit :-)
I am glad that it is working. Regarding seahorse... I just don't have control over it... The seahorse maintainer (gnome) seem like don't care to make it working... Is it working for you with gpg2? Can you update bug#164523 with you configuration so people may find the problem they are having with their environment. Thanks!
