Hi, With much testing, I have identified that this was caused by the change in gpgme1.0 after upgrading from 1.18.0-6+b1 to 1.23.2-5. More specifically, gpg.Context.verify (which uses gpgme_op_verify underneath) now calls "gpg" with "--verify" which caused its behavior to change and resulted in the test failure in python-pgpy. Specifically, previously gpg.Context.verify on a signed message will return the original message, but now it throws an error of GPG_ERR_NO_DATA, or GPG_ERR_BAD_DATA if it encounters garbage following the clearsigned data.
More details please see the upstream bug[1] and commit[2] (see also commit[3] where gpgme turns off a check of GPG_ERR_BAD_DATA due to this behavior change.) I have tested locally that removing "--verify" from the gpgme invocation restores the previous behavior and the python-pgpy tests pass. However, I doubt reverting to previous behavior is something gpgme would want to do. So the usage of gpg.Context.verify() in python-pgpy tests need to adapt to the new behavior.
