I'd like an application that supports encrypting/decrypting files using gnupg keys. Actually, what I'd really like is password-store (aka pass) running on Sailfish, but the first option would be a reasonable workaround, for now.

Once my current work project ends and I get some free time, I may look into porting pass, but just don't have time at the moment.

There are Android apps that will do it (there's an Android version of password-store on FDroid) but there's an issue in the AlienDalvik which means that it and none of the keychain apps can import a key from a file (they can only see image files). That said, I'd prefer it to be native anyway, for no necessarily logical reason.

Yeah, I've seen that thanks, but I use pass on my other devices and don't really want to switch.

ownKeepass works really well. And I copy and use the same KDB password database file on my desktop computers with KeePassX client - http://www.keepassx.org/

I looked at the dependencies of pass a couple of days ago and it depends on so much stuff (well, not that much) that isn't available in Sailfish that it really seems like more trouble than it's worth to build it yourself. It also seems to depend on xclip for whatever reason, which itself depends on X.

Yes, that's why I haven't just installed it, like I installed it on my n900. It's just a Bash script, so it would be possible to cut it down. On my n900 I removed the xclip stuff and gpg-agent stuff and just used it from the terminal when I needed to look something up, or add something.

The Android app version of it is basically a separate application that supports a sub-set of it's functionality - which is all I want really. View a password and create one. All the rest will be done on my laptop. Just something to create and decrypt a gpg encrypted file. It'll be a good learning exercise....I hope.

Thanks for looking though.

Yes, I used to use Keepass before I switched to pass. I want to keep pass on the laptop, etc., so I'm looking to adapt the Jolla solution to the rest of my set-up, rather than the other way round.
