Sure, I'll be happy to. But as I mentioned before I wonder if it's worth
to do it with my current package mix: I'm using testing, where the GNOME
stack seems to be still in flux, apparently), with gnupg2 coming from
experimental. I can debug, but I wonder if it'd be a good time
investment.

Unless you consider this issue potentially blocking for uploading to
unstable, I'd rather wait for gnupg2 to land in testing and try again.
After all the issue is for a non-default behavior that one should
explicitly enabled, right?

OTOH if you do consider this a blocker, I'll roll up my sleeves and have
a look ASAP :-)

I can look up logs, but I could use some guidance about where the GNOME
user session logs are supposed to be. ~/.xsession-errors seems to be
obsolete --- or else it hasn't received log entries on my laptop since
March 2016, which seems unlikely...

Cheers.
