I found a script that helps to fix this (or at least passes Kleopatra self test for 'Gpg-Agent Connectivity' now) Found this in ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent-start.sh (don't remember details behind why I originally had this file, and how it later lost execution permission. But one I gave it execution permission and ran it, the remaining Kleopatra test passed. 'Gpg-Agent Connectivity') [Note: using Debian and KDE]
