Thanks again for your help. The problem seems to be with pinentry when gpg is invoked manually: gpg: problem with the agent: No pinentry and then as a consequence: gpg: public key decryption failed: General error gpg: decryption failed: No secret key However, I have remerged pinentry. :-( Initially, I thought this was related to updating media-libs/jpeg-8 and library libjpeg.so.7, but it seems that it may be related to qt3 becoming deprecated? Perhaps I should unmask app-crypt/pinentry-0.7.6 which has qt4 in its USE flags and try with that? Meanwhile I just resync'ed and there's a load of kde-4.3.5 updates. Perhaps I was cought up in some major update bonanza and that's why this broke. I'll finish the update and see how it goes. -- Regards, Mick
