The backend - Aegypten won't compile. I think I got as far as ksba before the 
compile went into a tail-spin.

Aha, interesting. Did you build the complete tree from source, or did you use 
a Debian package for cryptplug, gpgme and libgpgerror0?

Debian kernel:		2.4.23-1-686
Debian dist:		testing
libgpg-error0 		0.6-0.1
libgpg-error-dev 	0.6-0.1
cryptplug			0.3.16-1
cryptplug-dev 		0.3.16-1
libgpgme6		0.3.15-1
libqt3-mt-dev 		3:3.2.3-2
qt3-dev-tools		3:3.2.3-2
glib2.0			2.2.3-1	(libglib2.0-0)
libglib2.0-dev		2.2.3-1

Source:

libksba-0.9.1.tar.gz
newpg-0.9.4.tar.gz

It halts at newpg.

When I last tried to get it to work, the code appeared OK but the packages
don't provide the error code definitions - ksba just redefines the errors as
gnupg macros which in turn are not defined by the Debian packages.

I'm afraid I'm swamped with other work at the moment and I am not likely to 
have time to do a build from source for a few weeks.

However, here's the output that causes the halt:

newpg-0.9.4 $ make
maperror.c: In function `map_ksba_err':
maperror.c:46: error: `KSBA_Out_Of_Core' undeclared (first use in this

If there's an obvious problem, I'll pursue it - just not right now.
:-)

I've got pinentry compiled and installed - in case I get gpg-agent running.
./configure --enable-pinentry-qt --with-qt-dir=/usr/share/qt3
