List of some known bugs ------------------------- This following list contains those bugs which we are aware of. Please make sure that bugs you report are not listed here. If you can fix one of these bugs/limitations we will certainly be glad to receive a patch. (Please note that we need a disclaimer if a patch is longer than about 10 lines; but it may help anyway to show us where we have to fix it. Do an "info standards" to find out why a disclaimer is needed for GNU.) Format: severity: [ *] to [***], no, first reported, by, version. Bugs which are marked with "FIX: yyyy-mm-dd" are fixed in the CVS and after about half a day in the rsync snapshots. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [ *] #3 --list-packets should continue even w/o a passphrase (or in batch mode). Maybe we have to move it to a separate program?? [ *] #4 1999-01-13 0.9.1 v3 key 'expiration date' problem: 1. generate a key, set expiration date 2. 3. edit a v3 secret key, try to set expiration date - output: "You can't change... 4. save 5. key has expiration date from 1. and gpg reports that pubkey and seckey differ. The for loop the exp.date is set before v3 detection? [is this bug still alive? - can someone please check it] [ **] #6 1999-02-22 0.9.3 Bus error on IRIX 6.4: Crash while doing a keygen. I think while creating the prime. Other bus errors are reported when doing a "gpg README" on sparc-solaris2.6. --> Solaris fixed. --> IRIX bug still there but someone should test this again! [ *] #18 1999-05-27 0.9.7 rndunix hangs on hp/ux. The problem is related to my_plcose which is not always called. (I suggest to use EGD instead of rndunix.) [ *] #22 1999-07-22 Solaris make has problems with the generated POTFILES - seems to be a gettext bug. Use GNU gmake as a workaround. [ *] #23 1999-09-03 0.9.11 Only the first signature of a cleartext sig seems to be verified. Can't fix it in 1.0 because the code is semi-frozen. HMMM: Can't reprodude the bug here - it just works. Check wehther [ *] #24 1999-09-05 0.9.11 Does not link libc and libz expect when removing all "-lc -lz" except for the last one. This happens on some systems when not using the GNU ld. This need to be fixed in libtool. [ **] #25 1999-10-04 1.0 Validity check based on user name is only done when listing a key; the key ID based checking (selecting the user ID with the most validity) is used in all other cases. The Edit menu does not have a way to disbly user ID based validity. Next #26
