GPGServices is decrypting to filename _CONSOLE

This problem surfaces when I'm using the latest release, GPG_Suite-2015.08. and also the latest nightly, GPG Suite-1432n

Using the context menu 'Decrypt File' Service on file foo.pdf.asc decrypts to file _CONSOLE. If I rename the decrypted file to _CONSOLE.pdf, it opens fine as a PDF file, so the decryption is working fine, just the naming of the resultant file is off.

If I uninstall and reinstall "GPG Suite - 2013.10.22.dmg", the decrypted file is name foo.pdf, as I would expect.

For some reason since the 10/22/13 release the decrypt file service fails to rename the decrypted file by just dropping the .asc suffix.

    Hi there,

    is this always reproducible if you encrypt a new file e.g. test.txt and then decrypt using GPG Suite 2015.08?

    If yes, could you encrypt a file to our public key (teamATgpgtoolsDOTorg - already in GPG Keychain) and attach it to this discussion here.

    All the best,
    steve

    Hi,

    i've fixed the bug today.
    Explanation: If a message is flagged as "for your eyes only", gpg sets the filename to _CONSOLE. GPGServices has ignored this fact. Now it will ignore this special filename.

    Hi:

    I tried the nightlies of a night or two ago (GPG Suite 1460n) and the problem was resolved.

    Thx for your help,
