Hello,

I am currently porting gnupg to Mac OS X/Darwin. After some trouble I was finally successful in getting  the support for dynamically loaded modules to work!

Trying to decrypt a pgp2.6-generated message using the unsupported idea module leads to the following message:


> gpg: NOTE: cipher algorithm 1 not found in preferences
> gpg: fatal: idea encryption (0) failed
> secmem usage: 2016/2816 bytes in 4/9 blocks of pool 2976/16384
>
What went wrong? Does this indicated an error in porting gnupg to Mac OS X or has this problem another cause? Thanks for any help, Dirk PS: Because I'm not (yet) on the mailing list please respond to the above address. -- Dirk Schwarzhans Email: dirk@kalium.physik.TU-Berlin.DE (MIME and NeXTMail welcome) WWW: http://pl.physik.TU-Berlin.DE/DZ/Dirk/ PGP-Key: http://pl.physik.TU-Berlin.DE/DZ/Dirk/PGPKey.html ------------------------------------------------------------------
