Please check your pubring.gpg and secring.gpg
Thanks Werner,
That was exactly the issue - after moving pubring.gpg and secring.gpg to
a backup directory, key generation works fine. Would it be worth
modifying the code so that it checks for existence of these files and
asks for permission to overwrite them or simply exits with a message

I tried searching this list and found a few others having problems with
key generation, but I haven't figured out the solution for me. I've

$ mkdir ~/.gnupg
$ chmod 700 ~/.gnupg
$ gpg --gen-key
Great, you are welcome. :-)
