GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 415268
"Always include myself as a recipient" should mark key in encryption dialog
Last modified: 2018-08-03 19:10:07 UTC
Please describe the problem: When using the option "when encrypting, always include myself as a recipient", the encryption dialog does not mark the own key. There are two problems with this: 1. You cannot uncheck it to indicate that this time you do not want to include yourself as a recipient 2. The dialog expects at least one key to be marked in order to proceed. If you want to encrypt a file just for yourself, you cannot just proceed. You have to find your own key first. The apparent solution would be to rename the option by replacing "always" with "by default" and to mark the corresponding key when invoking the encrypt-dialog. Steps to reproduce: Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
This is easy enough to change in the recipient dialog. However, there's no easy way to tell the EncryptText DBus function that the default recipient doesn't need to be added without changing the function. That would require all callers to check the Gconf key or use the libcryptui key chooser. I'll post a patch that edits the key chooser.
