Several months back I thought it would be a good idea to be able to sign my handful of CPAN modules, so I tried to set up a PGP/gpg key. It did not go well, so I gave up on the idea.

Now downloading some signed CPAN modules doesn't work. Here is a sample log:

  PJACKLAM/Math-BigInt-FastCalc-0.28.tar.gz
  /usr/bin/make -- OK
CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.72)
Running make test

Of course I'd like to fix PGP/gpg so it works, but failing that I'd like to delete whatever's getting in the way. Advice on how to do either of these things will be very welcome!
