Description

Some of us thought it would be easier to process Whisperback reports if the log files where sent in separate PGP/MIME attachments. It is sometimes tricky to find the right piece of information in the middle of all the rest.

Jessie logs are too big and make Schleuder crazy. We thus need PGP/MIME support to reintroduce WhisperBack in Tails/Jessie (see Feature #7893)

Alan, do you still plan to work on this? Otherwise I’ll turn this bug into a “Starter” one.

I can do it if we find it important, but I won’t complain if someone else implements it.

We have a custom implementation of PGP/MIME in whisperBack/encryption.py that whould be relatively easy to tweak. Else there is a library (not in Debian) that might help at https://github.com/zenhack/python-gpgmime/tree/master/gpgmime. I don’t know which would be faster to implement.
