https://github.com/fpco/minghc says "MinGHC is dead. Please use Stack."
Does that mean anything to you?

If you run 'gpg --with-colons --list-config' at the command line does
it also take 2 minutes?

It looks like the backtrace was cut off, could you save it in Emacs,
and send it as attachment instead?
Also, please start emacs as 'emacs -Q -l package.el -l epg.el' which
should load some sources and give a nicer backtrace.
