GnuPG Woes
 
I have exported my public and private keyring from my main machine and imported with gpg --import for both files on my N810.

I cannot decrypt anything that was encrypted with my public key, whereas the same private key works fine on my desktop. I just get an error saying no usable secret keys found. The difference being if I run gpg --list-secret-keys:

ssb 0g/FFFFFFFF 2008-02-29

...is what I see for my private key on the N810, whereas on the desktop the Fs are replaced with something interesting.

I really hope this isn't another issue with the stripped down, garbage, osso-gnupg binary that comes on the device. I am still having a hard time coming to understand what anyone was thinking when they did that.

I have the same problem, i think is because the algoritm we use for key isn't supported in gpg maemo, in fact if you try
>$gpg --version
supported algorithms:
Pubkey: DSA
Cipher: 3DES
Hash: MD5, SHA1, RIPEMD160
Compression: Uncompressed, ZIP, ZLIB

Yes, this is sadly what I was expecting. I just still can't wrap my head around what anyone was thinking when they were setting the build flags for osso-gnupg. I really hope this is fixed soon.
