Short fullname hangs QtPass keypair generation process for infinite time #202
Comments
First time qtpass user here. Adding a letter to my given name makes it possible to create a keypair. Doesn't matter if I also use my surname or not, its the length of the given name that creates the issue. |
Solution seems to be two-fold. A) Correctly check for status / errors of gpg2 keygen. |
I implemented the (B) solution. I also checked for email validity (gpg2 expect for a valid email address) |
I was trying to initialize QPass by creating a keypair. I put my fullname and other requested info. Then the "Generating a gnupg keypair" window appears, but after 3 hours it never finished.
So I tried to create a keypair from terminal using the same backend used by QPass (gpg2); when I type my fullname (I typed "dakk" that's my nickname) gpg2 says that the fullname should be longer than 4 characters.
I figured out that QPass received this error by gpg2, but this error is not handled properly by QPass.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
