[Bug 161002] Re: Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names
Looks like upstream doesn't want this. I'd prefer not to carry an unadvised patch in Ubuntu for the feature. ** Changed in: gnupg (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/161002 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 161002] Re: Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names
I suggest that if you desire this functionality to report the issue at upstream. They're usually very active and can also judge where the original limit comes from. -- Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/161002 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 161002] Re: Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names
I did a quick look through some of the relevant RFCs and it does appear that based on those requirements the 5 character minimum is arbitrary. -- Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/161002 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Okay, good to know. I think it's late for this to go into Hardy, so we'll delay until Intrepid opens. ** Changed in: gnupg (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Kees Cook (keescook) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/161002 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 161002] Re: Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names
I think this is more of a feature enhancement than a bug. So far as I can determine the 5-character minimum is arbitrary rather than dictated by technical requirements. I've certainly not seen any problems in using it. I've made a version available in my PPA. This simply alters the "strlen() < 5" check to be "< 2". It doesn't update all the gettext po files. https://edge.launchpad.net/~intuitivenipple/+archive -- Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/161002 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 161002] Re: Arbitrary Real Name minimum length limit refuses valid names
Have you contacted upstream gnupg developers about this change? It seems like there must be a reason for the 5 character limit. Can you file this bug upstream too?
