gpg: secret keys read: 1

But when i m doing the same thing i windows , it gives me this.
gpg: key 1367E7CA: secret key imported
gpg: key 1367E7CA: public key "Doodle Frog <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" imported
gpg: Total number processed: 1

This is the reason i am not able to decrpt the file in unix , while
i m able to do it in windows.
In unix its giving the below error
gpg: key 1367E7CA: secret key without public key - skipped
gpg: encrypted with ELG-E key, ID 4759D930
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
Note : Compared the .asc file in Windows and unix , they are the same.
Your version of GPG on Unix is old enough that it can't create a
public key from a secret key automatically. Upgrade it.
