Public bug reported:
LibreOffice should be able to digitally sign a document with a GPG
private key in the GPG key chain. However, the key is not listed in the
list of certificates shown following the menu File - Digital Signatures
- Digital Signatures... - Sign Document..., after, e.g., creating and
saving a document on LibreOffice Writer.
This seems to be because apparmor doesn't allow LibreOffice to
communicate with GPG agent. /var/log/syslog shows lines like:
Jul 1 15:15:14 misoan kernel: [20238.265212] audit: type=1400
audit(1593652514.311:333): apparmor="DENIED" operation="connect" profile

pid=23725 comm="gpg" requested_mask="wr" denied_mask="wr" fsuid=1001
ouid=1001
Locally, I could make LibreOffice show the GPG private key with the
following change against
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.lib.libreoffice.program.soffice.bin
