Here is the code that checks if GPG is available or not:

bool KGPGFile::GPGAvailable()
{
  GpgME::initializeLibrary();
  bool rc = (GpgME::checkEngine(GpgME::OpenPGP) == 0);
  // qDebug("KGPGFile::GPGAvailable returns %d", rc);
  return rc;
}

Not sure. Can you send me the output of the following command:

  % od -c xxx.kmy | head

Replace xxx with the name of your file.
