did you try

already?

wrt. to debugging. running duplicity< w/ max. verbosity might give you a more detailed gpg output.

..ede/duply.net

Yes,

Like many others, I experience errors with GPG. For me, killing the gnome-keyring, restarting pcscd daemon and/or reinserting the card makes thing work again.

I normally issue gpg --card-status to check that everything is ok, even I decipher a hello world file.

It is not a problem for me to the GPG to work. I achieve that consistently despite the fact that it is a hassle.

The problem here is that duplicity seems to use another configuration/environment unrelated to the gpg user environment setup.

When gpg is perfectly working duplicity consistently fails.

I am going to try to generate max verbosity.

R.

did you try duply already? it has a gpg test, which tries to mimic the command line enc/decryption within duplicity. maybe this helps you to narrow it down?
