Kleopatra packaging notes

=========================

The build dependencies should be fairly straightforward (see CMakeLists.txt)

Runtime Dependencies

====================

Kleopatra is a GUI for GnuPG so it needs a working GnuPG setup.

- gnupg2

-- gnupg-agent (part of gnupg2 sources)

-- dirmngr (part of gnupg2 sources)

-- gpgsm (part of gnupg2 sources)

- Pinentry (Qt / Gtk / Gnome)

- PaperKey (http://www.jabberwocky.com/software/paperkey/)

For Pinentry preferably pinentry-qt alternatively pinentry-gtk2 and

pinentry-gnome also work. Pinentry-curses does not work for Kleopatra.

Kleopatra may work with gnupg 1, too but the selftest will

warn about this and some functionality will be unavailable. It should

depend on gnupg2. GnuPG 2.1.x is supported, too.

You can use Kleopatra's selftest to check your packaging it should

show no errors.

PaperKey is not checked in selftest but users will get a warning

and a failure if they try to "Print Secret Key" if paperkey is

not installed.

Downstream Dependers

====================

- Dolphin

Kleopatra provided crypto integration for Dolphin through installed

desktop files. You might want to suggest / recommend it.

- Kontact / KMail / KDEPIM

While Kontact / KMail crypto works without Kleopatra it should

be installed with KMail as it provides Crypto Configuration GUI.

It also provides Certificate Details. This should probably be

recommended and part of a kdepim meta package.

- GnuPG itself

GnuPG can, of course, be used without Kleopatra. In GUI

environments you might want to weakly suggest Kleopatra as

a GUI for GnuPG (especially GpgSM)
