| Can you try to duplicate the problem and post the steps you followed?
| GnuPG works fine with a s2k digest of sha256.  The error message you
| got also doesn't follow from the scenario you describe - if a s2k
| digest was used that GnuPG can't handle, the error message is
| "md_enable: algorithm %d not available".

OK. Using another key which is still encrypted with the SHA256 hash, and
switching to English so I don't have to translate the gpg output, I
reproduced the old configuration file with the line "s2k-digest-algo
SHA256" included.

Both --list-keys and edit-key gave me the following:
gpg: NOTE: THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT VERSION!
gpg; It is only intended for test purposes and should NOT be
gpg: used in a production environment or with production keys!
gpg: digest alhorithm 'SHA256' is read-only in this release
gpg: selected digest algorithm is invalid

Next, I commented out the s2k-digest-algo option, and I got the same
response.

Then I tried it all again but this time I DELETED the s2k-digest-algo
option, and I got exactly the same results.

Cheers,

Denis
