Yes, I didn't thought it is important but yes, in pinentry dialog it is
identified as EDDSA (public part is available by wkd for vladimir at bkoty.ru).

After I rebuilt libgcrypt and gnupg (in that order) I can sign, encrypt and
decrypt messages as it was before, no more failures or gpg-agent "crashes".
Thank you!
