GPG 2017.2: mail.app rejecting my passphrase

Still running MacOS 10.12.6

When I create a new encrypted message, send it to myself, and attempt to decrypt it, my passphrase is rejected. There is no apparent reason why; my passphrase and keys have not changed.

   Followup: I have reinstalled GPG. The note says to mention "xpc service is not working properly."

   Hi Randolph,

   welcome to the GPGTools support platform. Sorry you are having problems using GPG Suite.

   Could you please download and install our latest GPG Suite nightly build and see if the problem persists. That page also has sig and SHA256 to verify the download.

   All the best,
   steve
