Package: gnupg2
Version: 1.9.15-3ubuntu5
Severity: important
Tags: patch


pgp-protect-tool is not able to decrypt PKCS-12 files.  Therefore,
you can not use gpgsm to import and use your own certificates.
Here's an example:

/usr/lib/gnupg2/gpg-protect-tool --p12-import certs.p12
gpg-protect-tool: error at "bags", offset 24
gpg-protect-tool: error parsing or decrypting the PKCS-12 file

This was already reported at:
http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2005-April/025414.html
with a patch described here:
http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2005-April/025491.html

Thanks for fixing this!

Stefan
