[Pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#634930: gpa: GPA unusable due to "General Assuan error"

I had this error displayed in three existing profiles on this machine,
even with no gpg key stored in one of these profiles. So I created a
fresh new profile as you suggested. The result are:

- there is not any problem with any of the reimported keys in the new profile
- in the new profile, there is no "General Assuan error" when starting gpa

In one of the profiles where the "bug" is present and gnupg is already
configured and working with the old version of gpa, I moved away the
.gnupg directory in order to have it recreated when starting again the newer
gpa. And the error was however still displayed.

So this error message seems to be related to something else stored
in the currently existing user profiles that I can't figure for now. If you
ever have any clue...

All my apologies.

Lionel
