Evolution and GnuPG signing

Hi All,

I am running Severn with all updates as of this morning, however I am
having issues with Evolution 1.4.4-7 and signing/encrypting outgoing
messages.

When I send a message I get the following error:
  Failed to GPG sign: Broken pipe

  gpg: skipped `~/.gnupg/secring.gpg': secret key not available
  gpg: signing failed: secret key not available

Now if I jump to a shell and do:
  gpg --clearsign < myfile.txt

I get prompted for my private keys' password and then get a valid
signature block afterwards, so I think that I at least have the gpg part
correct.

Is anyone else seeing this?

Take care,

Gawain
