I'm having a problem with Crypt::OpenPGP. The scenario is this:

* Create a group (ADMIN) with it's own public and private keys and group password and them it into the database.

* Create 2 users (USER1, USER2) with public and private keys each with their own individual passwords.

* Then, I add USER1 to the ADMIN group and used USER1's keyid as a recipient for the decrypted ADMIN data. I can decrypt the group data just fine using USER1's password.

* Next, I add USER2 to the ADMIN group and used USER1 and USER2's keyid as a recipient for the decrypted ADMIN data.

Problem: For some reason once I add USER2 to the ADMIN group, I cannot use USER1's password to decrypt the ADMIN data anymore. However, USER2's password does work. Anyone have an Idea why this doesn't work. Crypt::OpenPGP says it handles multiple recipients so I should be able to use any of those recipients passwords to decrypt the ADMIN data correct?
