The 3 standard curves are now supported in gpg-agent's ssh-agent
protocol implementation. I tested this with all 3 curves and keys
generated by OpenSSH 5.9p1.
Using existing non-ssh generated keys will likely fail for now. To fix
this, the code should first undergo some more cleanup; then the fixes
are pretty straightforward. And yes, the data structures are way too
complicated.
The asymmetric quotes used by GNU in the past (`...') don't render
nicely on modern systems. We now use two \x27 characters ('...').
The proper solution would be to use the correct Unicode symmetric
quotes here. However this has the disadvantage that the system
requires Unicode support. We don't want that today. If Unicode is
available a generated po file can be used to output proper quotes. A
simple sed script like the one used for en@quote is sufficient to
change them.
The changes have been done by applying
sed -i "s/\`\([^'\`]*\)'/'\1'/g"
to most files and fixing obvious problems by hand. The msgid strings in
the po files were fixed with a similar command.
We better do this once and for all instead of cluttering all future
commits with diffs of trailing white spaces. In the majority of cases
blank or single lines are affected and thus this change won't disturb
a git blame too much. For future commits the pre-commit scripts
checks that this won't happen again.
