Hello! I'm a newbie GPG user. I'm using Linux Mint Debian Edition and GPG2. (see enf of email for version info)
Trying to use gpg2 for the first time I get several error messages : <code> $ gpg2 --gen-key [...] You need a Passphrase to protect your secret key. gpg: problem with the agent: Bad CA certificate gpg: problem with the agent: Invalid card gpg: Key generation canceled. </code> What mean “Bad CA certificate” and “Invalid card”? How can I solve these problems? Thanks in advance for your help!
