Please update to 1.7.9  - Libgcrypt is the most likely cause for a bus error.

> Linux ubuntu-phablet 3.4.67 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jun 6 12:04:40 UTC 2016 b75400e armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux

1.7.2 has this NEWS entry

   - Fix bus errors on ARM for Poly1305, ChaCha20, AES, and SHA-512.

AES is used by gpg-agent to protect your key.


Shalom-Salam,
