Aha.  Here's a problem:

mithrandir:~/private/db$ gpg2 --decrypt personal
gpg: error reading keyblock: Legacy key
gpg: keydb_get_keyblock failed: Legacy key
gpg: encrypted with RSA key, ID 7CE29A76E9769486
gpg: decryption failed: No secret key

I have no idea what that means, and Google was not particularly
enlightening.

Yes.

Looks like this afernoon just when this problem started.

I get a lot more "legacy key" errors, and this weird error that I don't
understand:

gpg: key D15D313882004173: no valid user IDs
gpg: this may be caused by a missing self-signature
gpg: keydb_get_keyblock failed: Legacy key
gpg: key D15D313882004173: failed to re-lookup public key

That key definitely has a self-signature.  It's the same key I use for
Debian.
