SUMMARY
Expert mode KGpg key generation only works if the user is using the default
GnuPG home. This is common for some users who juggle multiple keychains, which
there are a variety of good reasons for doing.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Outside KGpg, create a GnuPG home dir. E.g., run at minimum:
$ mkdir -m 0700 ~/.gnupg-kde_bug_report
$ gpg2 --homedir=!$ --list-keys
gpg2 --homedir=~/.gnupg-kde_bug_report --list-keys
gpg: keybox '/home/fred/.gnupg-kde_bug_report/pubring.kbx' created
gpg: /home/fred/.gnupg-kde_bug_report/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created
$ touch ~/.gnupg-kde_bug_report/gpg.conf
2. Inside KGpg, go to «Settings→GnuPG Settings». Set the home location to
~/.gnupg-kde_bug_report using the GUI.
3. «Keys→Generate Keypair…». Observe it works if not clicked «Expert Mode».

4. «Keys→Generate Keypair…». Observe breakage as soon as clicked «Expert Mode».

OBSERVED RESULT
Terminal opens and fails to launch child gpg2.
EXPECTED RESULT
Successful launch of gpg2.
