It should be possible to adjust your gpg.conf to use 3DES by default, and then things will interoperate (anything already encrypted by git-annex still won't be visible on Android of course). - -The gpg shipped with git-annex on Android could be rebuilt to include these. However, it would probably need porting of more libraries to Android. I stopped once I got gpg to compile at all, and had to pass several configure flags to disable features, - -This is something that anyone interested could work on. (Ie, no Haskell!) See `standalone/android/Makefile` in the git-annex source tree, which uses the Android SDK and NDK to cross-compile gnupg for Android. - -I think that getting it to build without `--enable-minimal` would probably get most of the way there. Aha.. I just tried this, and the new binary seems to support nearly everything the linux one does, no extra libraries needed! -"""]] |
