Yes, opening the .gpg file works just fine. And as noted, an earlier checkout of gnus does as well. I can't check it further today, unfortunately. Weather has me working from home and I left the office machine off over the weekend so I can't access the affected copy, nor can I directly access my IMAP servers from home. -- Dave Goldberg david.goldberg6@verizon.net ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

Thanks. That stops the error, but I still have the remaining problem that the auth source lines are not being honored. After successfully opening the file, I am prompted for login in formation for each server and asked to save it in the file. So as I keep saying yes, I have a lot of repeated lines in the file.

It looks like something is off with the parsing, presumably just in XEmacs, or perhaps there's something really wrong with my setup. I have in .authinfo.gpg just the lines that have been written by the new auth-source (password masked): machine cyrus.my.org login dsg password SECRET port imap machine exchange.my.org login dsg password SECRET port imap This after removing several identical copies, each of which gets written when I run through the initial login process.

Please ignore my guess the above. After debugging with XEmacs (I could reproduce the problem), now I suspect that the cause is elsewhere. Even with or without the above change, (netrc-parse "~/.authinfo.gpg") always returns nil except the first time, because the netrc-cache handling is buggy. netrc saves the content of the file in a form mangled with base64 and rot13. However, XEmacs does not have rot13-string and dgnushack.el defines rot13-string as a macro: (defmacro rot13-string (string) "Return ROT13 encryption of STRING." `(with-temp-buffer (insert ,string) (translate-region (point-min) (point-max) ,rot13-display-table) (buffer-string))) netrc-parse uses it as to save the contents: (setq netrc-cache ... (rot13-string (base64-encode-string (buffer-string)))) Guess what will happen. Since buffer-string is called from the buffer created by rot13-string, it will always return "". I'm attaching a patch.
