NeoChat - encryption not working
Last modified: 2024-03-23 10:56:20 UTC
I Installed again NeoChat from Tumbleweed repo OSS and still the encryption is not fully working. Dialog is there, also I was able to verify neochat. But still there will be the message - this message is encrypted and the sender have not shared the key with this device. # zypper se -r download.opensuse.org-oss --requires neochat Loading repository data...

Is it about this? https://invent.kde.org/network/neochat/-/wikis/FAQ#after-logging-in-to-neochat-i-cant-read-any-existing-decrypted-mesages-how-can-i-import-decryption-keys-i-verified-my-session-in-element-and-still-cant-read-encryted-messages
You can also run: grep "\[WARN \] quotient\.e2ee" .local/share/KDE/neochat/neochat.log.* and check if it's the same issue as https://bugs.kde.org/481644
Yes, looks like this: > grep "\[WARN \] quotient\.e2ee" ~/.local/share/KDE/neochat/neochat.log.* &>> NeoChat_libQuotient_error.txt > grep -i bad NeoChat_libQuotient_error.txt ~/.local/share/KDE/neochat/neochat.log.3:2024-03-23T09:56:36 [WARN ] quotient.e2ee: "Failed to decrypt the message": BAD_MESSAGE_MAC ~/.local/share/KDE/neochat/neochat.log.3:2024-03-23T09:56:36 [WARN ] quotient.e2ee: "Failed to decrypt the message": BAD_MESSAGE_MAC ~/.local/share/KDE/neochat/neochat.log.3:2024-03-23T09:58:03 [WARN ] quotient.e2ee: "Failed to decrypt the message": BAD_MESSAGE_MAC
