Hi, I have bisected a strange regression down to this commit that you made. If I apply the attached patch (which restores the original 2 lines of code), then everything works correctly. I apologize, but I don't have a simple reproducer. The gist of the problem is that Java cannot decrypt a file under certain circumstances, e.g., "ERROR javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: pad block corrupted". There is more information in the bug report at http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/588861 , but not all of it is helpful. Any thoughts? rtg -- Tim Gardner tim.gardner@canonical.com
