what are the permissions of /home/psusi ? and /home/psusi/.gnupg ? it is not safe if .gnupg; or the directory that contains it; are group|other writable.
new gpg uses keybox, whilst old gpg uses pub/secring.gpg. whenever new gpg was first executed against this .gnupg the old secring got auto converted to a keybox and from that point on the secrings & keybox no longer maintained in sync. Please check .gnupg/private-keys-v1.d/* folder and if that contains expected subkeys. If not try to use old gpg to export the subkeys; and re-import them with a new gpg, such that they migrate into the keybox structure. ** Changed in: gnupg2 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1777710 Title: gpg throws out my secret keys after upgrade to 18.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnupg2/+bug/1777710/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
