Can anyone recommend a gpg Gui that’s non KDE based?? I tried GPA but kept throwing out errors when creating a new key:
gpg: agent_genkey failed: no such file or directory
gpg: key generation failed: no such file or directory
Kleopatra:
The creation of a new OpenPGP certificate failed.
Error: /No such file or directory/
I always use the terminal, but I have occasionally used Passwords and Keys on Gnome’s desktop.
It’s called seahorse and here is a Flatpak :
Thanks, there’s no way to encrypt clipboard content though with that app?
Then you should use xclip & gpg . . .
gpgfrontend gives the following error:
Gpg Operation failed.
Error code: 1
Source: GPGME
Description: General error
gpg is working.
any suggestions?
What’s that? 
Gui for gpg, works in opensuse in a VM, but not working in Fedora 40 for some reason
have you looked at logs, dmesg or journalctl -xe
any easy way to post large amount of code?
You can use fpaste :
fpaste --help
Usage: fpaste [OPTION]... [FILE]...
Send text file(s), stdin, or clipboard to
the Fedora community pastebin at https://paste.centos.org
and return the URL.
It is often useful to be able to easily paste text
to the Fedora Pastebin at http://paste.fedoraproject.org and
this simple utility will do that and return the resulting URL
so that people may examine the output.
ex : journalctl -xe | fpaste --raw-url it will return a raw url for you to paste here.
I don’t see anything out of sorts from just quickly looking at it. . .
Sorry but I’m pretty much out of sorts with this. I have a bunch of keys myself, but I never use a GUI to generate them. Gnome’s tool is built in so I guess that doesn’t count.
Edit
could you open a terminal and start the application to see if there are any errors?

I just installed gpgfrontend from Flathub and it works for me here. Could you please create a new user and see if the issue persists?
added new user with same result, app doesn’t even launch (see below). I can run as root user, but once again i’m unable to create a new keypair without error.

Cool. Could we have the output of fpaste --sysinfo --printonly please?
