Version: 1.4.3 (using KDE KDE 3.0.4) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux He, when using gpg, sign mails works perfect, and encryption worked with kde for SuSe 8.0 correct, too. But now with SuSE 8.1 i got the following error message when trying to encrypt a message with a fully trustet gpg key: gpg:warning:using unsecure memory gpg:please see www.gnupg.org/faq.html for more details gpg:<keyid>:skipped:unusable public key gpg:[stdin]:sign and encrypt fails: unusable public key encryption fails even if there is no signing expected. btw, is there no possibility to mark and copy error messages like this in kde? thx for a great work using gpg in kmail! regards, joerg maier
using gpg from bash interface works proper with these keys! updated gpg to version 1.2.1, but that made no changes to error messages. didnt find any updates for kdenetwork.
Did you mark your own key as ultimately trusted? Since GnuPG 1.0.7 this is necessary.
yes, even my key is marked as ultimately trusted. reason for the error message seems to be the public key used for encryption. i tried several public keys like gpg and pgp keys. thanx, joerg maier
Sorry for sending this bug, it is no bug! My own secret key was expired. i created a new and now it works. strange is that in command-line-interface of gpg, it worked even with expired secrets. the error message is strange, too, because in my op, it was the secret key who preserved kmail to ecrypt messages...
Subject: Re: gpg: skipped: unusable public key Thanks for the update. As it wasn't a bug in KMail I close the report.
The only Bug ist the misleading error Message! Shouldnt it say my Private key is expired? And why it is possible to sign messages with a expired key and it is not possible to encrypt a message when the key for encryption is ok?
