[sup-devel] [PATCH] fix GPG "hang" on malformed PGP message (detached signature)
A PGP message chunk (bounded by "-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----" and
"-----END PGP MESSAGE-----") can contain a detached signature. By default GPG
will wait for the payload to be supplied on stdin if it gets passed a lone
detached signature. To the user it will appear as GPG (or sup, since they
don't see any output from GPG) hanging.
The best way to solve this would be enabling batch mode, but then passphrase
querying without gpg-agent wouldn't work anymore. So we resort to passing
--multifile which has the side effect of not allowing detached signatures.
