I am using GPG Keychain 1.4.6 on macOS Mojave (10.14.4). This is part of the GPG Suite 2018.5 (2368).<br>
I wanted to back up my key using the export function. If I choose to include the private key as well I get an error message after about 30 secs (see screenshot attached). However, exporting the public key only works fine.</p>
<p>Your help will be much appreciated!<br>
