GPGServices 1.9.2 - empty .txt decryption fails
- create an empty .txt (for example with nano)
- encrypt it
- decryption with GPGServices fails (Decryption failed. Failed decrypting 'untitled.txt') (for both --decrypt and --symmetric)
The same file can be decrypted with gpg though.
If the files gets encrypted and signed, the signature is verified and GPGServices fails. Isn't that strange?
