Hi all,

I'm looking to set up gnupg to enable en/decrypting individual files on my n900, using a key imported from my laptop. I think I've got the basic steps sorted, but I'm hitting an issue.

The .gnupg dir in /home/user is owned by root. This means that I can't import keys into it as user, and if I do it as root, I can't use them as user.

Have I messed something up somewhere, and should this dir be owned by user?

I can't think of anything I've done to change it, but I haven't played with the device (as opposed to using it mainly as a phone) for some months, so may have forgotten something.

Edit to add a question I'd forgotten:

Is gpg on the n900 gpg2? If not, is that one available?
gpg2 gives command not found error.
