Have you tried redirection? gpg < bigfile.pgp > bigfile Using redirection is the correct way of handling large files regarding both de- and encryption. I haven't seen this error myself in connection with large files though. > I'm running gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.1 with zlib 1.2.3 on a Kubuntu Breezy > system.

Looks like you switched to Kubuntu though... Maybe someone else will come up with some magic that'll help you. As a last resort, a fresh compile might help using the exact programme versions you used on the system your data was encrypted on. > One slightly pissed off first time user who would like to get his > data back. I hope you have additional backups. Always test such critical things extensively on each system affected (I know it's a pain). -- left blank, right bald
