Many thanks, your last comment saved me a few hours ! Did you opened an issue with gnome-keyring ?

Somewhere along the lines Evolution stopped to sign a mail with gpg, instead I get the error message: Because "gpg: writing to '-' gpg: signing failed: No passphrase given gpg: signing failed: No passphrase given ", you may need to select different mail options. note the double "gpg: signing failed. Unsure if that is relevant. gpg --list-keys works, and has the key I have in Prefs -> Mail Accounts -> Edit -> Security Originally, I got a popup asking for my gpg passphrase, I don't get that since some update anymore. I'd suspect that is the cluprit. There is a process gpg-agent running: gpg-agent --homedir /home/sneumann/.gnupg --use-standard-socket --daemon => How to manually invoke the gpg signing with window asking for passphrase ? Can I check that gpg-agent does what it is supposed to ?
