Here is the scenario. This laptop ran rawhide, and is now running FC6. As you can see, gpg is working perfectly with kmail. I use kgpg to manage keys. My main workstation has a clean install of FC6, and from day one I have not been able to run kmail. Eventually I tied it down to a gpg problem. Running gkrellm shows that on boot-up the cpu is using 99-100% and staying there. Top shows that it is gpg at fault and I have to killall -9 to stop it. It may be relevant that killall gpg does not stop it. I have checked everything in the various conf files under .gnupg and they match the ones on the well-behaved laptop. I've checked permissions and altered as necessary to match this laptop. I copied all the contents of .gnupg on the laptop and moved them onto the workstation. Nothing makes any difference. I moved the env and startup directories out of .kde, and there is no undue cpu usage. I renamed .gnupg, uninstalled all things gpg then reinstalled them. No new .gnupg directory was created, so I had to put the old one back. I'm out of ideas. If I can run kmail/gpg/kgpg on the FC6 laptop I should be able to do the same on the workstation with a clean-install FC6. It can't be a bug as such, or it would affect both. Any ideas where I can go next? Anne
