I didn't have anything else in mind, but at that point I hadn't noticed that one of your previous messages said you had gpg signing turned on - as you do it makes sense that the patch fixed it. Thanks again for reporting this and testing the fix - it seems the test suite has a bit of a blind spot when it comes to gpg signing, I guess it's difficult to set up a key for tests I'll send a proper patch when I have time in a few days Best Wishes Phillip
