Package: gnupg
Version: 2.1.14-5
Severity: important
Hi,
Since recently (the update from gnupg 2.1.11-7 to 2.1.14-5 yesterday?)
I'm unable to use gnupg. I'm unable to decrypt mails in mutt now, and on
the console, key generation or file signing fails like this:
~~~~~
userA$ LANG=EN gpg -v -v --gen-key
gpg (GnuPG) 2.1.14; Copyright (C) 2016 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.
There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law.
Note: Use "gpg --full-gen-key" for a full featured key generation dialog.
GnuPG needs to construct a user ID to identify your key.
Real name: Max Mustermann
Email address: t...@example.com
You selected this USER-ID:
"Max Mustermann <t...@example.com>"
Change (N)ame, (E)mail, or (O)kay/(Q)uit? O
We need to generate a lot of random bytes. It is a good idea to perform
some other action (type on the keyboard, move the mouse, utilize the
disks) during the prime generation; this gives the random number
generator a better chance to gain enough entropy.

gpg: using "00B7A52F" as default secret key for signing
gpg: writing to 'testfile.txt.sig'

As I read something about systemd integration in the other tickets, I
checked "systemctl list-units" and there are no failed ones. Rebooting
the system did not help either.
Also trying to start a gpg-agent.service (not sure whether this is
relevant) fails:
~~~~~
userA$ LANG=EN systemctl --user enable gpg-agent; LANG=EN systemctl --user
start gpg-agent
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or director
~~~~~
However, after invoking --sign or --gen-key, a gpg-agent is running:
~~~~~
ps -Af |grep gpg-agent | grep -v grep
userA 4370 1 0 18:36 ? 00:00:00 gpg-agent --homedir
<USERAHOME>/.gnupg --use-standard-socket --daemon
userB 6127 1 0 18:39 ? 00:00:00 gpg-agent --homedir
<USERBHOME>/.gnupg --use-standard-socket --daemon

Please let me know if you need any further information. Thanks :-).
Regards, Linus
