    Are you sure that you successfully preset the passphrase for this key?
    If so, how did you do that?

I use the script below to start Emacs.  gpg gives me an error if I
don't enter the passphrase correctly, and asks again.  Thus, when gpg
exits and lets emacs start, I know the passphrase is correct.

Maybe what's needed is to add code to record other data.
In the debug buffer, or in Lisp variables (I could examine them).


#!/bin/sh

eval `gpg-agent --daemon`
gpg --use-agent --output /dev/null --sign /dev/null > /dev/null

emacs -f normal-start
