I also can't ssh, it seems the gpg-agent no longer looks at
"/home/mike/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf", does not find "enable-ssh-support",
and starts the gpg agent without ssh support as;

mike      1717     1  0 10:09 ?        00:00:00 /lib/systemd/systemd --user
...
mike      3275  1717  0 10:23 ?        00:00:00  \_ /usr/bin/gpg-agent
--supervised

Kind Regards,
