in reply to GnuPG module doesn't pass tests

Hi cuttenweiler,

I haven't used GnuPG myself, but the docs state:


... whereas you apparently have gpg2?

Maybe this helps.


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.

    Indeed - gpg2 is installed and operating correctly. When I run all of the tests in the test.pl from the command line using the native tools, I succeed. (Get key, encode, decode, import, export, etc etc.)

      "gpg2 is installed and operating correctly"

      ... whereas the docs for GnuPG begin with:

      GnuPG - Perl module interface to the GNU Privacy Guard (v1.x.x series)


      The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
      PS -> GnuPG does work with gpg2. Verified on a Gentoo box, and a few other distros. Am I the only guy working with the GnuPG module on CentOS 7? 'Cause I just tested it with a fresh out of the box CentOS 7 image and Vendor perl (5.16.3) and it fails the exact same way as 5.20.2. Severe weirdness!
