I reported the issue as I tested 2.6.36 and 2.6.37-rc6 and both failed. Now I tried current -git and indeed I can't reproduce the issue there.
I'm now bisecting between master and rc6 to see which commit fixes the problem - just to make sure it's not something irrelevant and the bug is still hidden somewhere. [unhandled content-type:application/pgp-signature] | |
