Description Vincent Petry 2014-10-21 07:55:33 UTC

Currently the GPG dialog only asks for a password, but there is no information as to what application is currently requesting access.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup kwallet with gpg backend
2. Setup kwallet to close automatically after 10 minutes
3. Setup a few apps to use kwallet (korganizer, kmail, owncloud client, etc)
4. Log out then log in again
5. Enter gpg password
6. Wait for kwallet to auto-close
7. Wait for app to re-request access

Actual Results:  
GPG dialog appears without application name (pinentry-qt4)

Expected Results:  
GPG dialog must show application name, because as a user I'd like to know what application is requesting access right now (in case it might be a malicious app...)

Duplicate of Bug 451039, except here the prompt is made by pinentry, invoked by GPG, which is outside of KWallet's control.
This would need to be handled in GPG/pinentry. See also Bug 451039 comment 2 for some technical details how this may be approached.
