Bug#1071372: emacs: it hangs saving .gpg files (without using cpu)

Show all headers | View raw

Package: emacs
Version: 1:29.3+1-3
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: alex.andreotti@gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

For years I have normally used emacs (GUI) to create gpg files (.org.gpg or .md.gpg) where I save relatively sensitive information using a key installed in the system (with password). Last week when I created a file and saved it, emacs asked me to mark the key to use, and when I pressed OK to save the file it hung. Probably a "recent" apt upgrade broke it but I don't know exactly which one, before this problem I used to save .gpg files often

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I tried the cli version with emacsclient and tried launching the GUI version with -Q, but the problem persists. I tried stopping it with ^C and it break out but often the file isn't created, with an existing file it made it invalid.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

When saving .gpg files it hangs and I've to terminate emacs

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I've been opening/editing/saving .gpg files for years without any problems and they save in a second.
