Bug ID: 482897
Summary: Kleopatra does not support all GPG trust levels
anymore
Classification: Applications
Product: kleopatra
Version: 3.1.28.230805
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: aheine...@gnupg.org
Reporter: kitt...@gmail.com
CC: kdepim-b...@kde.org, m...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Kleopatra does not have anymore an option to set any of all 5 different trust
levels from the GPG backend, which in turn implement the RFC-4880
specification.
I have already brought up this topic in Gitlab, where Ingo Klöcker kindly
suggested to move the issue here.
I can see his point, and I can agree on making a UI which is simpler to use,
but I don't find it particularly wise to make a step back to do so, especially
for KDE software. Maybe the old menu could have been moved to an advanced
section elsewhere, but that functionality cannot be entirely missing, in my
opinion.
Also, the way in which the new functionality has been implemented, basically
transforms key trust management into a FSM with forced transitions (forced by
which options you can click), which in my case required me to go and look into
the actual code to get a clear understanding of what was going on.
OBSERVED RESULT
Kleopatra does not have an option to set key trust level anymore.
EXPECTED RESULT
Kleopatra should reflect GPG behavior, or at least allow for same functionality
as GPG, even if layed out differently. A simplified way is welcome, but should
reflect backend behavior.
