Hm, setting epg-debug to t and looking in  *epg-debug* I see that the
pin I enter isn't tranferred correctly:

  [GNUPG:] NEED_PASSPHRASE_PIN OPENPGP 1 D276000124010101000100000BDD0000/C40B1B7D09A9326AFD181FB7B728D4441E65DD19
  [GNUPG:] GET_HIDDEN passphrase.pin.ask
  [GNUPG:] GOT_IT
  gpg: PIN for CHV1 is too short; minimum length is 6
  [GNUPG:] SC_OP_FAILURE 2
  gpg: signing failed: bad passphrase
  gpg: signing failed: bad passphrase

I'm pretty sure I'm typing the pin correctly, as decryption works...

Hm.


  Best regards,
