I do not get the whole discussion, surely Werner's and his collagues' time can spent more productively than managing an ftp server? The protocol really is not very popular anymore and if one really needs to use it most mirrors still offer ftp. cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.

[...] Hello Werner, So in my test (without --compliance=de-vs) 2.2.43 /should/ have automatically used OCB when encrypting for a key which has 'AEAD: OCB' set? cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.

2.2.43 and vsd-allow-ocb
Hello, 2.2.42`s NEWS said * gpg: Support OCB encryption. [T6263] and https://dev.gnupg.org/T6263 shows two commits rG0a355b2fe7d8 gpg: Add compatibility flag "vsd-allow-ocb" rGa545e14e8a74 gpg: Support OCB encryption. The commit message for 0a355b2fe7d8 said | * g10/gpg.c (compatibility_flags): Add "vsd-allow-ocb". | (main): And set it. Which understand to mean that 2.2.43 would by default both generate keys with 'AEAD: OCB' and use OCB when encrypting to keys with that flag set. And this behavior could have been disabled with '--compatibility-flags none'. However afaict (gpg --compatibility-flags ?) the flag is not set by default and indeed --quick-generate-key without --compatibility-flags vsd-allow-ocb generates a key without "AEAD: OCB" and does not use OCB for encrypting to a key with "AEAD: OCB" set. Is my understanding flawed? cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
