Problem with encryption using QCA and PGP

Hi fellow list readers,

I am trying to use libqca to encrypt and decrypt data (the KMyMoney data that
is). Decryption works perfectly, but encryption hangs up and seems to be in
an endless loop (wasting lots of CPU cycles).

Who/where would be the best bet to ask for more detailed support?

How many programmers does it take to change a
light bulb? None. It's a hardware problem!

Hi Thomas,

I am not an expert for encryption, but we use QCA in Skrooge too.
You can find how we did here (line 441):

Hi,

Just a last comment: It's an example without PGP.

Hello Thomas,

this might not answer your original question but it might be helpful
anyway. Do you know the existance of libkleo in kdepimlibs? It's used
in Kleopatra and KMail. I'm also trying to do some things with GPG and
I have found that libkleo is very easy to use.

Greetings,
    Eduardo Robles Elvira.

The "delta" list (cc'd) is a good place to ask.

A small example showing the problem would obviously help to understand what
you are doing. Please at least describe what short of encryption you are doing
(e.g. symmetric key, PGP, lower level RSA, whatever) and how you are trying to
use it.
