Hey folks, I have a keypair that was created with gpg 1.4.20 and currently is disabled. I installed gpg 2.1.20 and tried to enable this key, but get the following error:
\>gpg --edit-key testkey gpg (GnuPG) 2.1.20; Copyright (C) 2017 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. gpg: starting migration from earlier GnuPG versions gpg: porting secret keys from '.../gnupgHome/secring.gpg' to gpg-agent gpg: key C4EE06ABF10675C4: secret key imported gpg: migration succeeded gpg: checking the trustdb gpg: waiting for file '.../gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... gpg: waiting for file '.../gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... gpg: waiting for file '.../gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... gpg: waiting for file '.../gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... ^C When I repeat the edit-key command it works ok. Then I want to encrypt something to this key, but get the same error message: \>gpg --encrypt -r testkey gpg: checking the trustdb gpg: waiting for file 'Z:/Anwendungsdaten/gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... gpg: waiting for file 'Z:/Anwendungsdaten/gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... gpg: waiting for file 'Z:/Anwendungsdaten/gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... ^C \>gpg --encrypt -r testkey gpg: checking the trustdb gpg: waiting for file 'Z:/Anwendungsdaten/gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... ^C \>gpg --encrypt -r testkey gpg: checking the trustdb gpg: waiting for file 'Z:/Anwendungsdaten/gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... gpg: waiting for file 'Z:/Anwendungsdaten/gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... gpg: waiting for file 'Z:/Anwendungsdaten/gnupgHome/pubring.gpg' to become accessible ... ^C As you can see it never works, until I use list-key or list-public-key command. After this I am able to encrypt to this key. (I am using Windows 8.1 64.) Anybody had/has this problem too? Regards Derek
