Actually gpg drops suid right after initializing memory and has several checks to make sure that it has been dropped. Any, I would ignore that problem for now. If the diagnostics is annoying no-secmem-warning in gpg.conf can be used. For the other problem I noticed that the gpg binary is pretty small and thus I assume gpg is some kind of wrapper script. Mote information on the installation is needed, in particular the gnupg versions and how it was build. Salam-Shalom, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei. Ausnahmen regelt ein Bundesgesetz.
