Bug report

As I'm not subscribed, I'm not expecting much of a response. However,
it seemed only reasonable to report this, in case it's of value.

I've just installed gnupg-1.4.0 on a somewhat-modified Fedora 2 system,
and it broke on the first key I tried:

user$ /opt/pkgs/gnupg-1.2.6/bin/gpg --verify
/opt/sourcery/crypto/gnupg-1.4.0.tar.bz2.sig 
gpg: Signature made Thu Dec 16 21:50:52 2004 EST using DSA key ID
57548DCD
gpg: Good signature from "Werner Koch (gnupg sig) <dd9jn at gnu.org>"
gpg: Note: This key has expired!
Primary key fingerprint: 6BD9 050F D8FC 941B 4341  2DCC 68B7 AB89 5754
8DCD
Well? I am waiting! gpg --verify
/opt/sourcery/crypto/gnupg-1.4.0.tar.bz2.sig 

gpg: Ohhhh jeeee: ... this is a bug (g10.c:1758:main)
secmem usage: 0/0 bytes in 0/0 blocks of pool 0/32768
Aborted


The configure options used were:
./configure --prefix=/opt/pkgs/gnupg-1.4.0 --enable-m-guard
--enable-selinux-support --with-capabilities

The kernel is 2.6.8.1, in case that's a factor.


This seems like a good opportunity also to thank the team for all your
work. It's an excellent product that's been working nicely for me for
quite some time now.



Kind regards,
James Fleming
