That can happen if there is no support found for OpenPGP on your system. If 
you have not checked EngineInfo for gpg engine beforehand.. But please do not 
respond here this is the wrong place for it. Please take this over to https://
dev.gnupg.org/

Yes. We are compatible. Since QGpgME is deeply rooted in KDE we are following 
along with the transition there. As mentioned your problem does not have 
anything to do with exec but this is the wrong channel to debug your code.

Andre
