Description Samir Nassar 2014-11-06 09:46:31 UTC 
Seemingly major architectural changes are coming with the newly released GnuPG 2.1 - https://gnupg.org/faq/whats-new-in-2.1.html

Reproducible: Didn't try




No packages are available yet to test KGPG against GnuPG 2.1

Please open bugsreports only for specific problems / feature requests.
I'm using Kleopatra with gpg2.1 and an ECC and I don't see any issues.,

To test it you don't need packages or a different build as everything is done over gpgme you can just swap the gnupg version. If there's a 2.1 gpg-agent set you can use gnupg 2.1 with kleopatra / kmail.

There is no GUI for some of the new Features of gpg2.1 (e.g. ECC key creation.) But as those are still hidden on the command line until you use --expert I think it is perfectly fine not to include them in Kleopatra for now. If you find something missing that should be in the GUI please open Bug reports directly for a specific issue.
