Hehe I agree python-gnupg is fairly derpy. I don't think there are any good alternatives however. If you know of any please point them out.

In my searching I did however find https://github.com/isislovecruft/python-gnupg which appears to be a maintenance fork of python-gnupg with a lot of issues fixed.

Could you test using the above library and see if the issue persists? if it works, perhaps we'll update our documentation/setup.py to point at this version instead.
