I fixed the problem in two steps:
- create a file gpg.conf-2 in ~/.gnupg (touch ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf-2)
- clean the gnupg.conf file removing (commenting out) the spare lines:
#debug-level basic
#log-file socket:///home/ianni/.gnupg/log-socket
#debug-level basic
which where created due to a bug which is also mentioned (indirectly) in http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Kubuntu_Quantal_Privacy#PGP_Troubleshooting;
- deinstalling kleopatra and installing kgpg.
Now everything works again. I hope this can help someone.

gnupg-agent not running properly

Bug description:
HI there
I just upgraded from Maverick KDE 4.5.3 and I have a problem signing
outgoing emails in KMail. When trying to sign outgoing email I get
this generic error "Signing failed: General error".
I then tried to pinpoint down the issue and started Kleopatra. It
reports the following error:
"Check that gpg-agent is running and that the GPG_AGENT_INFO variable
is set up-to-date"
I then purged the gnupga-agent package (sudo apt-get purge gnupg-
agent) and reinstalled it and kleopatra. The same problems appears.
In the ~/.gnupg folder I found various gnugp-agnet files. The gpg-
agent.conf did not mention the above variable but the gpg-agent-info-
HOSTNAME file does. For me it contains currently:
"GPG_AGENT_INFO=/tmp/gpg-L8LKin/S.gpg-agent:1687:1"
I don't know what that should be changed to.
Also when I try to run gpg-agent from the cli I get this error:
"gpg-agent[4794]: can't connect to `/home/hyper/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent':
No such file or directory"
Qt: 4.7.0
KDE Development Platform: 4.5.80 (4.6 Beta1)
KMail: 1.13.5
