Dear Maintainer,

   When importing public keys, gpg hangs for several minutes with
something like

gpg: waiting for lock (held by 1308345) (deadlock?) ...

   Process 1308345, in this case, was

1308345 ?        RL     gpg --disable-dirmngr --batch --no-sk-comments --status-fd 21 --no-tty --charset utf8 --enable-progress-filter --exit-on-status-write-error --display :0.0 --logger-fd 25 --with-colons --with-secret --with-keygrip --list-keys --

   ... and the only other gpg process was

1307658 pts/2    SL+    0:00 gpg --edit-key 5B80C5754298F0CB55D8ED6ABCEF7E294B092E28

   I first noticed this problem almost a year ago, but didn't report
it at the time. I looks to me as if process 1308345 is waiting for an
input, but I don't see any prompts or dialog boxes.

   Problem seems to time out eventually, so importing keys is still
(vaguely) possible, so I'm leaving this report marked as "normal".

Thanks,

 .....Ron
