Package: emacs-snapshot
Version: 1:20070223-1
Severity: important
I am using emacs-snapshot with the built-in Gnus:
$ dpkg -l gnus
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name Version Description
+++-========================-========================-================================================================
pn gnus <none> (no description available)
When I want to gpg-sign a mail (C-c RET s p), I am asked for the
passphrase as usual, but then I get an error no matter how careful I
type the passphrase. It worked earlier; for sure when I was using
sarge's emacs and gnus, but I'm quite sure it worked also with
emacs-snapshot on sarge.
Now I'm using etch and a newer emacs-snapshot from unstable, and I get
this error:

This is the backtrace:

There are some issues with gpg on the commandline: There's no
problem with something like
$ gpg --clearsign gpgsign.backtrace
You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "Frank Küster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
1024-bit DSA key, ID 2252FA1A, created 2003-04-30
However, debsign has problems recognising me:
$ debsign tex-common_1.0_i386.changes
signfile tex-common_1.0.dsc Frank KÃŒster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
gpg: skipped "Frank KÃÅster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>": secret key not available
gpg: [stdin]: clearsign failed: secret key not available
debsign: gpg error occurred! Aborting....
(It works with [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
Moreover, I also have "unusual" characters in my passphrase, which has
caused errors in the past with some gnus versions.
Any idea what I could do to debug this?
Regards, Frank
