• "gr_rms" rejected but "Debian Project Leader 2021 Election" worked

    From Osamu Aoki@21:1/5 to All on Thu Apr 15 17:50:01 2021
    Is this only me?

    My Leader vote worked. So I think my new mail setup is working.

    But my gr_rms is rejected (2 cases each with main key and sub key
    signed). This sounds like not my side of issue.

    had the same issue: gmail wrapped a line when sending the clearsigned
    message to vote.d.o - resent it with mutt, all worked; maybe it's
    something similar?

    That will take more data points ;-)

    Acknowledge on that.

    So my "Voting period is over" is wrong.
    My fellow DD is dealing with something as "too late".

    You can shorten the lines of choices 3 & 5 and send the email through
    GMail. See your sent messages as to where the wrap happened.

    Best,
    Richard

    I believe you're right, especially when reading:

    gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
    gpg: the signature could not be verified.

    Hi again,

    This is not GMAIL problem. This involves only My PC and Debian
    servers.

    (I use gmail only for recieving mails. I send mail from my Debian
    shell account using SSH when I use @debuian.org address to avoid mail rejections. So Gmail has nothing to do with my problem.)

    $ date -u --iso=sec
    2021-04-15T23:44:44+00:00

    So still in voting period as far as I am concerned.

    I think the problem is:
    gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir
    '/srv/vote.debian.org/data/gr_rms'

    I think times execution of permission setting to close voting may have
    kicked in too early.

    Regards,

    Osamu

    No, that’s just a warning, it happens on every ballot, though you only see it if there’s also another error. You’re likely running into the same problem I
    did, which is that the RMS ballot has lines long enough to be wrapped under quoted printable, whereas the DPL election fits within the line limit. Are you using an inline signature rather than a detached signature? The former is not robust against MTA wrapping, but the latter is, and is what’s recommended.

    Hi Osamu,

    I've replied privately to the mail you've sent to secretary,
    but I'm not sure that you saw it.

    I see that you attempted to vote again, and that you got the same
    error.

    Your 3 messages for the RMS GR were not signed, while your
    mail to the DPL election was signed.

    The error message contained:
    gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.

    Which is almost always that there is no signature. Please make
    sure that you actually sign the email.

    There is no permission problem, nor a problem that the vote is
    over. Other people are able to vote.


    Kurt

    Hmmm... I overlooked this one. This is very interesting workaround.

    Now I know all the tricks even if I don't use mutt.
