I tried to find out from the raw source of your e-mail what platform you are running. But as it often happens with @gmail.com addresses, this kind of information is not displayed. The current stable gpg2 is 2.0.17. How did you install 2.0.9? 2.0.9 uses gpg-agent to cache the passphrase, and pinentry to enter the passphrase. "can't connect to `/home/user/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent': No such file or directory" is typical of gpg-agent not being activated. I'm a Macintosh user, and I don't know enough about your problem to help you really. If you would post to the list more information about what OS you are running (and its version), how you installed 2.0.9, and the output to the following commands after the prompt in Terminal: gpg-agent cat ~/.gpg-agent-info I hope that more knowledgeable list members will be able to help.
