This sounds more like a bug to me. I'll probably gather all the info I
can and submit it and see what happens.

showphoto launches an external program to view the photo. Since you are
using Windows, the path has backslashes, that the receiving program
seems to be treating as escape characters rather than a path (plus, the
default of xloadimage is unlikely to be available there) 

Changing to a different viewer would probably fix it. And it will likely
work flawless if you tried the same steps from a *nix machine.

showphoto

2019-01-19 Thread Jerry
Windows 10 Pro version 1809
gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.11
libgcrypt 1.8.4

I am not sure if this is an error on my part of if something else is
wrong. I added a photo to one of my keys. That seemed to work fine.
When i view the key, the image is listed as uid 3, which seems correct.

The screen looks like this:

Displaying jpeg photo ID of size 88074 for key 3873063887DEC564 (uid 3)

After a few seconds, an error message pops up on the screen. 

C:\Users\Gerard\AppData\Local\Temp\gpg-62cno9\87DEC564.jpg contains an
invalid path.

I have tried several times with each uid and it always issues an error
message.

I was only experimenting with the idea of adding a photo, but I would
still like to know why it is apparently not working correctly.
