it happens all the time, solution is of itself as soon as I ask it on a forum

Sorry, I don’t know who is that )) I’m very new to all of this, but it’s very 
interesting
Thanks for attention

Mario, 
I know about reply all :) but didn’t want to be annoying with all one hundred 
questions that I was going to ask :)) 
But I agree that it may help to somebody else to solve the same issue. 
I  used this website to download and install 
https://www.gnupg.org/download/index.html 
<https://www.gnupg.org/download/index.html>

Robert,
It was my guess too, that there is a conflict between the original gnupg and 
that third-part GnuPG, that after deinstallation caused misunderstood in the 
system, causing some parameters, that it could not give anymore. 

Then I tried few times to uninstall gnupg using the command sudo apt-get 
install gnupg in Terminal. I edited this file gpg-agent.conf  previously, 
adding this line - pinentry-program /bereshka/bin/pinentry-qt . But it didn’t 
help and I removed it. Actually when I opened it first time, this file, it was 
empty and it’s empty today too, so there is noting to comment. 

I was struggling with that about two weeks ago and read tones of information in 
the internet and nothing helped. But after I asked that question and got all 
your kind advices I decided what if a miracle happens and I just try to decrypt 
a message again. And I was very surprised, because it works. I didn’t do any 
changes today, I just opened again that file config to look at. And I restarted 
my laptop many times right after all that changes that I did two weeks ago, but 
it didn’t help at that time. But today it just starts to work. 

Thank ya’ll

Best regards,
Anastasiia

help with gnupg

[Bereshka Web and Photo]

Hello, Dear Creators :) 

I will very appreciate if you can help me, because I was surfing a lot in the 
internet looking for an answer, and read tones of forums, but did not find 
solution.

So I installed gnupg 2 , command gpg didn’t work in Terminal. I was confused 
and decided to try Gnupg tools suite, I installed that and created my keys and 
passphrase. Later I knew that I should type gpg2 in Terminal to work with that. 
So I got encrypted message and I tried to decrypt it, but it just didn’t show a 
result, it said that by whom it was encrypted and to whom, that’s all. We 
decided that it might be a problem because go GPG tools suite, maybe it causes 
conflict. So I decided to deinstall GPG Tools. Before to do that I exported my 
public, private, rev certificate, then I deinstalled this software. I located 
all keys to a folder “keys” at my user root folder). Then I imported all keys 
through terminal. To check I do —list-keys and I see my imported key and my 
husband’s key that was imported as well. 


1. The problem is that I can encrypt message and send it to him and that he can 
decrypt it. But when I get encrypted message from him I can’t decrypt it. It 
does’t ask my passphrase. It asked when I had GPG Tools, but even with asked 
passpharase with GPG Tools being installed i didn’t get a decrypted message
Now I don’t have GPG Tools and when I do command gpg2 Enter and insert his 
message I get this 

gpg: public key decryption failed: No pinentry
gpg: decryption failed: No secret key


2. Then, I decided that if there is so much mess with this email, I will create 
keys with other one (ytsa...@mail.ru) , but I still get same error on the step 
of creation

gpg: public key decryption failed: No pinentry
gpg: decryption failed: No secret key


3. Also I found on one forum that file gpg-agent.conf should be edited with 
adding this line - pinentry-program /bereshka/bin/pinentry-qt
but it didn’t help



Below I pasted a piece of the process from my terminal.
