I know this has been closed before, but I do not have gnupg installed by homebrew. And this keeps coming back. It was working earlier today. Any chance for some assistance?

    Hi chuckwm,

    could you please send a debug log from your affected machine: Open System Preferences > GPG Suite > Send Report. Check the box to "attach debug log". Since you already described your issue in this discussion, you don't need to add a lot of detail, but please do add the link to your existing discussion, so I can then merge your debug info with this existing discussion.

    All the best,
    Steve

    I can do so, but I think I found the issue. If it happens again, I'll send the debug. There was libgpg-error installed via brew. I removed it, and it worked, even after reboot. I wish I could still use pass, which installs those, but I'll research how to install it without gnupg and the rest.
