Thank you for minimizing. I'd like to clarify the case. Is this importing private key? The invocation of gpg-agent by gpg frontend has an inherent race in the current implementation; When gpg frontend invokes gpg-agent, after spawning gpg-agent, gpg frontend tries to connect five times with one second intervals. When a machine is busy enough and scheduling of processes goes not that fair, the connection to gpg-agent from gpg frontend may fail. That's I have investigated, so far. I wonder if this is related to the issue. --
