I don't see userv available for Arch, Gentoo, openSUSE, or
Slackware either.  It's a very old tool (not that this makes
it bad in any way) which hasn't seen updates in a decade or
so, it appears.

Has userv ever been widely packaged outside of Debian?

In my case it is dnf, but this tool is not available at all in the
repos.

I think it should be available and a dependency for gnupg2 in this
case. Okay, then I'll search for userv and built it myself. And I'll
file a bug report against the gnupg2 rpm package for the not working
feature.

Thanks for your Help.

Regards,
Dirk

  apt-get install userv

Frankly, I wonder why that immense useful tool is not part of the base
distribution.

Oh, good to know.

So I tested it with dm-crypt and got another error:

---
$ g13 -r 764C2156D8AC31D0 --type dm-crypt --create container.g13 
g13: can't connect to 'g13-syshelp': IPC "connect" Aufruf
fehlgeschlagen G13
g13: (is userv and its gnupg-g13-syshelp script installed?)
g13: error creating a new container: IPC "connect" Aufruf
fehlgeschlagen 
---

GnuPG 2 is installed with all dependencies. Installed versions:

---
# dnf list "gnupg2*"
Installierte Pakete
gnupg2.x86_64  2.2.5-1.fc27  
gnupg2-smime.x86_64 2.2.5-1.fc27
---

There is neither a command or package named userv, nor a script called
'gnupg-g13-syshelp' in the repositories. The binary g13-syshelp is
available.

Has anybody some suggestions? or should I file a bug report against the
RPM package?

Thanks.

Regards,
Dirk

IIRC, the author of encfs said that it should not anymore be used.
Given that, I have not tested encfs based container in a long time.  I
use dm-crypt containers instead.

Did encfs remove dthe patch I once got upstream?  That could be a reason
for this.  For quick debugging, I would suggest to employ strace.
