I've had the same bug, and about an hour of looking and trying figure where's that number and what's locking gpg... I found that the numbers held actually are the .lock files on ~/.gnupg/ .
I still don't understand why this happen but the workaround i can find right now and worked for me is really to erase the *.lock . -- evolution causes gpg stale locks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42199 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
