I hadn't. I just did, and it gave me the same result as before.

I'm not entirely unfamiliar with the crypto behind the updates, so I realized some time ago that my clock might affect my ability to authenticate. And indeed when I started this process my clock was fairly far off. But I corrected that some time ago. I just checked my time against the US Naval Observatory time and found it to be within 1 s of correct time (probably closer).

So that's not it, either.

Please let us know when you find a solution.
I'll be sure to post here if I find anything out, because I think there are others with the same problem. Thanks for your time.

Ah! I found it.

The problem wasn't gpg after all, but libreadline6. Updating it didn't help, but building it manually (md5: a3a5bf025a1b8df869f45f34098ffc6a rather than 2569b5ed629a3e573b0a8f9ec23a37ff) and copying my version to /usr/local/lib/libreadline.so.6 worked!

CLOCK(1)						      General Commands Manual							  CLOCK(1)

NAME
clock - display the time in an icon or window SYNOPSIS
clock AVAILABILITY
This command is available with the OpenWindows environment. For information about installing OpenWindows, refer to the OpenWindows Instal- lation and Start-Up Guide. DESCRIPTION
clock is an OpenWindows XView utility that displays the current time in a window or icon. When the window is open, clock can display the time in either analog or digital format. The clock window is scalable in either format. USAGE
When the clock window is open, it has a floating menu from which you can bring up a property window. From this property sheet, you can modify the display of the tool by selecting either the Analog or Digital choice box. Seconds: On the analog version, this selection starts a second hand on the face of the clock. On the digital version, it adds two dig- its to the digital readout. Date: Turns on a date display for both analog and digital versions of clock. BUGS
If you reset the system time, clock will not reflect the new time until you change its window state from open to icon, or vice versa. To reset the system time, see date (1V). The date display does not go well with the round clock face. Occasionally, when clock is uncovered, the face will be visually corrupted. Use the Refresh button from the frame menu to repair. 11 June 1990 CLOCK(1)
All times are GMT -4. The time now is 07:43 PM.
