gpg: out of secure memory while allocating 2048 bytes
gpg: (this may be caused by too many secret keys used simultaneously or due to
excessive large key sizes)
Obviously, the latest security patch breaks ElGamal encryption with large keys
(in this case, 16384 bytes).
Although GnuPG doesn't allow to generate these keys, the PGP standard (and
GnuPG itself) supports large key sizes.
Please review the latest patch and make sure that all key sizes are supported.
** Affects: gnupg (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
