QtPass doesn't work will pass in WSL #375
Comments
I haven't tried bash on Windows yet. |

I can't make it work in Windows either. Using the WSL is the only way I've found to install pass. No luck with |
I don't think this is realistic to fix.

@rdoeffinger Pext (issue mentioned above) implemeted support for pass in WSL. It DOES work. So, well, all of your points are invalid. |
I never said it's not possible (except maybe in point 4, but I also said I might be wrong). |
I suspect another issue is that for password-protected keys QtPass currently relies on gpg making use of graphical password input plugins, but those won't be available when running pass in WSL. |
@rdoeffinger You just get pass as it was running on GNU/Linux. It gives you the same output, and it communicates with gpg by itself. The only thing required is to make QtPass support calling it "the Windows way". I have no idea how GPG or UI changes are related at all. You won't be able to request a password, so the only limitation is that a GPG key should have an empty keystore. Which is a bummer, and probably has a solution, but that's none of my business, I don't run Windows. |
It happens that I wanted this for other reasons. |
Was this implemented or was it just discarded? |
This has been implemented in #431 and is currently being improved on in project: No OS left behind TODO:
|
@annejan that's great! thanks! |
QtPass refuses to work with
pass
running in Bash on Windows (tried Ubuntu and Arch GNU/Linux)I specified
C:\Windows\System32\bash.exe --login /usr/bin/pass
for a path to pass (which works withpassff
for example), but QtPass refuses to accept that setting and tries to use native Git/GPGThe text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
