Still working, slowly but steadily, on bug#63627, where one aspect is
to provide ERT tests for plstore.el.
Now GnuPG 2.4.* can suffer from GnuPG bug T6481, which would make any
ERT tests hang. At least one GNU/Linux distribution provides patched
GnuPG versions 2.4.* that do not hang with Emacs, though.
I see the following options to avoid hangs during tests:
- Check GnuPG version and unconditionally skip tests for GnuPG 2.4.*.
- Control test execution by some external means (environment variable?)
for GnuPG 2.4.*.
- Detect hanging GnuPG versions with some timeout logic along the
lines of the following (which actually works):
(let ((epg-pinentry-mode 'loopback))
(make-thread
(lambda ()
(sit-for 1)
(when-let ((process
(cl-find-if
(lambda (process)
(eq (process-filter process) #'epg--process-filter))
(process-list)))
((eq (process-status process) 'run)))
(kill-process process))))
(with-temp-buffer
(setq-local epa-file-encrypt-to '("test-key"))
(write-region (point-min) (point-max) "test.gpg")))
What do you think?
