Description Martin Dummer 2013-10-19 12:44:43 UTC 
When trying to create a gnupg-encrypted backup repository, it fails when app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.22 is on the system.

After downgrading gnupg to version app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.20 all works fine.

I report this bug to keep it as a known issue, it should be fixed upstream. 

Maybe it is advisible to place a post-install-warning for the user in the ebuild when a known-to-not-working gnupg version is on the system.

As discussed with Martin this must be due to some api change in gnupg and must be fixed upstream.

this has been fixed upstream recently
I attached the corresponding patch from the author's git repository
(applies to v1.5 as well as v1.6.1)
Comment 4 Marc Schiffbauer gentoo-dev 2013-12-04 14:36:01 UTC 
Fixed in 1.5, Added 1.6.1-r1 revbump with fix
