python-gnupg | modified version of python-gnupg , including security patches

For encrypting and signing a message I want to use the python-gnupgp module. The module is a wrapper of gnupgp. The encryption works fine, but if I specify the sign option I get an error.

gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir '/home//Programming/GnuPGP/pgphome'\ngpg: Warning: not using 'xxx' as default key: No secret key\ngpg: all values passed to '--default-key' ignored\n[GNUPG:] KEY_CONSIDERED xxx 0\n[GNUPG:] KEY_CONSIDERED AADFCABF9D6B54C7938195737DC2E276767872B0 0\ngpg: no default secret key: No secret key\n[GNUPG:] INV_SGNR 9\n[GNUPG:] FAILURE sign-encrypt 17\ngpg: [stdin]: sign+encrypt failed: No secret key\n"

But I have imported a secret key and want to encrypt using the other_public.asc and sign with my own private key.

I use the module python-openpgp. This is my code:

There is a web page with a large piece of text on it.

I want to configure the state to perform a certain action if curl returns an error.

If the variable doesn't contain 'StatusDescription : OK'

How can I set up a check for a piece of text that is inside a variable

During the execution of the state, the manager "Chocolate" installs the package RealVNC (Program Files\Real VNC) Next, I create a key in the registry. I want the keys to be created only if the VNC installation was successful. I have tried

How do I include gpg (and all its dependencies) when I build my app with PyInstaller?

I'm releasing my python app as standalone executables for Linux, Windows, and MacOS using PyInstaller. I need to use gpg, so I'm using the python-gnupg module -- which basically just shells out to the locally-installed gpg binary on the system.

Because my app is designed to be a "portable" executable (I use PyInstaller to ship it with the python interpreter and all the other dependencies), I want to include gpg with my releases so the user doesn't have to install it on their machine.

How can I add the gpg binary and all its dependencies for the python-gnupg module using PyInstaller targeting Linux, Windows, and MacOS?

I'm trying to achieve the functionality provided by the following bash command in Python.

I'm building a python3 application, that generates a GPG key, asks for a passphrase and de/encrypts files. I want, that the correct passphrase input is required every start of the application.

Currently it seems, that the gpg-agent still holds the passphrase after the application is closed. A restart of the application does not require the correct passphrase to decrypt the data.

So I've had the idea to export the keys (public and private) into an ASCII armored file, import it on the start and deleting the keys again from the keyring, when the application closes. When I try to delete the keys (private key first, as described here at the documentation) and show the stderr of the resulting object, it shows me a "No Pinentry" Error.

I've written a short test program:

I am trying to encrypt a text file in Python 3.6 using python-gnupg, and a public key provided by a client, for which they have a private key to decrypt it with. I don't have access to that key. Despite python-gnupg appearing to successfully encrypt the file (though with some confusing errors appearing in the log), the client is unable to decrypt it. We're told the error they're getting is gpg: decryption failed: No secret key

When we tested encrypting a file using Cryptophane (different computer, running Windows instead of Ubuntu) and the same public key, they were able to decrypt it. This is how the encryption was successfully done manually for months. When testing the same code with our company public key, we were able to decrypt it using our private key and Cryptophane.

I've googled extensively for the error messages and general problem, and haven't found anything that seemed to be the same problem getting solved.

Here's the relevant code. filepath is the relative path to the file to be encrypted. pgp_key_name is the name of the .asc file containing the public key. pgp_key_dir is the directory it's in.

I am creating a package that depends on the python-gnupg PyPi package. In Python it is imported as gnupg. It is installed during the setup of my package.

Unfortunately there is the gnupg PyPi package which is also imported as gnupg in Python.

How do I make sure that the right package is called when I run from gnupg import ...? I want my package to work for users who have already installed the 'wrong' gnupg in their Python distribution and now have both packages residing in their site-packages directory.

I have a script that I want to email newly generated files in a given folder. I have been able to generate and send emails (without encryption) by using smtplib, email and uu. I also managed to successfully send a gpg encrypted without attachments.

Sending a gpg encrypted email with attachment has been a challenge however.

I used the python-gnupg library to create a cipher text for the file and thought I could just email that as the body of the email. This is along the lines of what I tried.
